Every small choice, every quiet act of giving, and every moment you spend pursuing Christ could be adding up to something far greater than you ever imagined.
In this episode of the Leveraging Success Podcast, Jeff Gerhardt challenges you to rethink faith, purpose, and the true meaning of eternal rewards. Jeff dives into this idea, revealing how the rewards God promises in the Bible are often overlooked. He shares stories—from his first job at Subway to bigger life lessons—that demonstrate how the principle of effort and reward isn’t just for work, but for our spiritual journeys too.
Jeff’s insights will inspire you to see faith as a relationship that impacts everything you do. Tune in as he talks about living with intention, integrating faith into daily life, and preparing for the ultimate moment when we stand before God. This episode is a reminder that a life of purpose and eternal rewards is waiting—if you’re ready to take that step today.
