Faith & Work Keynotes
Inspire your group to see their work the way God does to change their livesâand your organizationâforever.
I have 3 goals when I walk onto your stage.
- I want your phone to be blowing up during my keynote with texts from your boss, board, and attendees thanking you for bringing me to the event.
- I want your audience to describe my talk as the âmost mind-blowingâ and âmost entertainingâ on the agenda.
- I want to give your attendees practical things they can actually do the next day to more deeply integrate their faith and work in response to my talk.
By Godâs grace alone, I have achieved these goals over and over again on stages much like yours. Now I want to go to work for you and your group.
I only do a handful of in-person speeches a year, and by God's grace my calendar fills up quickly. Want me to speak at your event? Check my availability today!

"Jordan Raynor is THE best public speaker Iâve EVER heard. And Iâve been to a LOT of leadership conferences - John Maxwell, Priscilla Shirer, Craig Groeschel, etc. Those folks donât hold a candle to Jordan Raynor. Seriously. I donât know if itâs that the content of his message is just in complete and total alignment with our organization and how I personally want to live. Or if itâs Jordan's absolute dynamic, keep you on the edge of your seat delivery. Or the very thoughtful and highly customized slide deck and talking points. Something about that mix - itâs just an absolute A+, 100% base-clearing grand-slam every time!"

Keynotes
While no two speeches are exactly the same, these videos represent the core talks I am most frequently asked to deliver.
Redeeming Your Goals
Iâm ashamed to admit I used to trust Jesus for the forgiveness of my sins while trusting the world for advice on my goals. But nobody in history has accomplished more by the worldâs standardsâand, more importantly, by Godâs standardsâthan Jesus. So thereâs no better source of wisdom for pursuing godly goals in godly ways. In this talk, attendees learn how to achieve their goals with Christlike confidence, consistency, and character. Theyâll walk away with 7 timeless principles from the gospel biographies, plus 7 practices for living out those principles in our modern context.
Redeeming Your AI
God loves technology, but hates idolatrous uses of technology. In this keynote, I explore 5 biblical guardrails for working with AI that extend beyond the obvious black and white âdon'tsâ of AI (EX: feeding AI confidential information, using it to spread disinformation, etc.). Your group will also walk away with five practical tools to help them heed each of the biblical guardrails.
Half Truths About Heaven
Most people spend more time thinking about a week-long vacation than they do thinking about eternity. Thatâs a problem, because when we fail to think deeply about our final destination, it leads us to settle for half truths about heaven peddled by culture rather than the whole truths we find in Scripture. After replacing a few half-truths about heaven with whole-truths, your attendees will walk away from this talk with a whole lot more purpose in the present and hope for the future.
Five Mere Christians
Most Christians deeply want to glorify God in every aspect of their livesâincluding their work. But what on earth does that look like practically? I could tell your group the answer to that question through theological exposition. But in this keynote, I get to show them through an immersive, cinematic storytelling experience where I share the dramatic stories of five men and women throughout history who glorified God without a pulpit. Your group will walk away with five actionable takeaways they can immediately apply to their work, no matter what they do.
Stages
Hereâs a sample of some of the conferences, churches, corporations, and universities who have entrusted their audience to me.
"Iâve heard countless keynote speakers over the years, but Jordan Raynor stands out as one of the best ever! He brings a contagious energy that not only captivates the room but also creates lasting transformation. His ability to inspire both believer and non-believer audiences is truly exceptional. The feedback from our attendees said it best: âIt was like starting the conference with an energetic church service. Iâve never experienced anything like this beforeâit was incredible!â"

"I thoroughly enjoyed your Illuminate keynote. Loved the content, passion, and conviction through your words.
