Podcast appearances and mentions of faith at work

Sheltered, undisturbed plants may grow fast and even tall, but the result is a weak, fragile, and easily uprooted plant. By contrast, plants exposed to rain, wind, and the occasional disturbance grow strong, stable, and sturdy. Your soul works the same way.In this opening sermon of our summer series through the letter of James, we walk through James 1:1–18 and the old wisdom he himself leans into: that the trials we face are not meant to destroy us, but to activate and strengthen what has been given to us. We consider why the testing of faith produces steadfastness, what it means to ask God for wisdom without a divided soul, why the life resourced by appearances withers like grass, and the crucial difference between a trial and a temptation — one external, one a heart unsubmitted. Faith does its work not in one dramatic moment but over many ordinary ones, completing us — maturing us toward our purposed end — because what God starts in history and in us, he finishes in history through us.Questions for Reflection:James contends that the disturbances of life help ensure our maturation and completion. Where in your daily relations and responsibilities might God be activating and purifying your faith right now?When something hard hits, is your first instinct to face it as a trial that strengthens, or to read it as God against you? What would it look like to "count it all joy"?Where are you living divided — "double-souled" — tossed between believing and not believing? What wisdom do you need to ask God for, without doubting?Scripture References: James 1:1–18; Psalm 63:1–8; Proverbs 24:16; Acts 2:36; 1 Thessalonians 4:11–12; Psalm 1:3Voices/Quotes: Douglas Moo Commentary on James; John Calvin Commentary on the Catholic Epistles; Keith McCurdy Raising Sturdy Kids; Jonathan Haidt The Anxious GenerationSermon Notes & Liturgy | James: Faith at WorkChrist City Church gathers every Sunday at 10:10 AM at 642 Brookhurst Dr., Dallas, TX 75218; in the chapel at LHB. Come rest in Jesus.

Most Christians know they are called to love the people around them. Fewer think about what that means for the person who frustrates them in a meeting on Tuesday. Jason Davis stormed out of one of those meetings years ago, and what happened next reshaped how he shows up at work. This episode is for you if you want to bring your faith into daily workplace situations without preaching, burning out, or compartmentalizing it to Sunday mornings. What you will hear in this episode: Why prayer is not just a morning and evening habit. Jason walks through what it looks like to pray on demand throughout the workday, before a hard conversation, after a difficult meeting, and for the people around you. The real story behind his shift from complaining about a coworker to becoming an encourager. Including what happened years later when that same coworker asked about him. Why your coworkers qualify as neighbors in the biblical sense, and what that means for how you show up Monday through Friday. How to tell the difference between being led by God toward a decision and chasing the allure of entrepreneurship or a new opportunity on your own timeline. Why mentorship matters more than motivation if you are serious about growing in business or in your faith walk at work. Jason Davis(AKA Mr. Fortify) is a husband, author, speaker, teacher, encourager, and coach. Jason helps mission-driven people prioritize their faith in the marketplace by uniquely blending faith, business, and finance. Jason hosts a weekly podcast called The Fortified Life Podcast, helping people build a dependency on Jesus in the marketplace. Jason also hosts a weekly TV show called Fortified In Wisdom, helping people walk in the wisdom of God daily.  Jason has helped lead people out of over $322,000 of debt (and counting) and set aside upward of $100,000 in savings (and counting).

If you think your faith belongs at church and your work belongs at the office, you are already dividing something God never intended to split. The tension between belief and daily work is real, but it is not unsolvable. This episode gives you a practical framework for living your faith from Monday to Friday, beyond Sunday morning alone. Key Discussion Points The ART framework (Awareness, Responsibility, Tenacity): transformation requires action, not belief alone, because as Scripture says, faith without works is dead. Identity before purpose: God calls you to be someone before He calls you to do something, and getting that order wrong leads to drift. The 60-to-1 rule from aviation: one degree of course deviation compounds into a major miss over distance. Dan applies this to daily rhythms of faith, prayer, and strategic thinking at work. How to share your faith at work without being a theologian. Dan's simple framework: before Jesus, when Jesus happened, and after Jesus. Servant leadership in practice: what the Chick-fil-A inverted pyramid teaches about leading through serving, regardless of your title. Dan Pogue is an executive coach and leadership development expert who specializes in inspiring transformation in leaders and organizations. Drawing on over two decades of experience in the United States Air Force, corporate leadership, and roles as an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC), Master Certified Financial Coach, and founder of Thriving Leaders Group, he equips clients with the emotional intelligence, strategic clarity, and business acumen needed for lasting change. Known for his work with Fortune 500 executives, high-growth leaders, and Chick-fil-A leadership programs, Dan helps clients unlock their potential, elevate performance, and create meaningful impact in their businesses and communities.

From the Vault: Faith in Action (Part 1) Step into a transformative exploration of James 2:17 (NIV) with this powerful series opener from Logos Grace Church, originally aired on January 5, 2025. In this dynamic message, Pastor Charles Barksdale, M.B.E. delivers a blueprint for bridging the gap between Sunday morning worship and Monday morning reality. By diving into the original Greek context where pistis (faith) is inextricably linked to erga (works), we uncover a profound biblical truth: genuine faith is not mere cognitive assent, but an ontological transformation that must manifest in outward action. Historically, the early Church shook the world because their faith was a bold public testimony rather than a private sentiment. Pastor Barksdale invites you to move beyond "passive piety" and embrace a theology that makes the invisible power of God visible through your daily service. Whether you are navigating high-volume environments or corporate boardrooms, discover how to embody the Gospel where it matters most. Join the movement at Logos Grace Church, where we don't just hear the Word—we put our faith into motion!

What if the greatest threat to healthcare isn't a broken system — it's a dehumanized one? In this episode of Experiencing Healthcare, Jamie Preston and Your Health CEO Matt Staub wrestle with a deceptively simple idea from Harvard Business School Professor Ryan Buell: service is the business of people helping people. Sparked by Matt's experience at an Athena Health executive leadership forum, this is a conversation about what it truly means to serve — in a world where technology promises to do it faster, cheaper, and at scale. Key topics covered: Why you can never fully take people out of a service industry — and what happens to care quality when you try How ambient listening technology like Mobius is using AI to restore human connection in the exam room, not replace it The ICU nurses who used tough love to get a post-heart-surgery patient walking — and what that story reveals about what genuine service really looks like The "can vs. should" question every healthcare leader must ask before deploying new technology How to show up and serve others with excellence, even on your hardest personal days Healthcare will always evolve — but Matt and Jamie make a compelling case that the human at the center of care is the one thing worth protecting above all else. This one's worth the listen.

Larry Tribble spent years feeling alone in his faith at work. In grad school and in corporate leadership, he struggled to find the right way to talk about what he believed without alienating the people around him. Then he found Follower of One and a different model for living out faith in the marketplace. In this episode, Larry sits down with host Addison Williams to talk about what changed, how he brought his entire church on board with a marketplace mission trip, and why loving people well is the most effective form of evangelism. Episode Highlights Larry shares how he picked up the electric bass at age 50 after asking his worship leader how he could serve more at church. He describes the isolation he felt in grad school and corporate environments where faith conversations felt unwelcome or risky. Larry explains why fear holds more people back than actual opposition. He points out that telling your own story is something no one can argue with. The conversation covers why traditional evangelism models felt uncomfortable for Larry and how the Follower of One approach gave him a practical alternative. Larry talks about organizing a marketplace mission trip through his church, helping members realize God placed them in their workplaces on purpose. He highlights a key insight from the Follower of One community: loving people means being willing to be inconvenienced on their behalf. Larry breaks down why building relationships first creates the trust needed for deeper conversations about faith. The episode closes with Larry's encouragement to start each workday with a simple prayer of availability, surrendering the day to God's direction before walking through the door. If you feel alone in your faith at work, Larry's message is simple: join a community of people trying to do the same thing. Follower of One exists for this purpose. Visit the Follower of One website to connect with the community, join a marketplace mission trip, or find Larry on LinkedIn.

How to Grow Your Business With SEO (Without Social Media) — Faith Hanan on Her Faith at WorkEpisode OverviewAre you tired of posting on Instagram and TikTok every day — only to watch your content die in 24 hours? In this episode of Her Faith at Work, host Jan Touchberry sits down with Faith Hanan, accidental SEO expert, copywriter, barrel racer, and mom of three, to talk about one of the most powerful (and misunderstood) tools for growing a Christian woman's business online: search engine optimization.Faith has not posted on social media for her business in over three years — and her business is still growing. In this conversation, she breaks down why SEO is the "crockpot of marketing," how to find the right keywords for your business, and what tools you can use today even if your budget is $0.About Faith HananFaith Hanan is an accidental SEO expert, copywriter, podcaster, homeschool mom, worship leader, and competitive barrel racer. She runs a copywriting and SEO agency and teaches faith-filled entrepreneurs how to scale their online businesses using SEO, keywords, and blogging — all in less than 20 hours a week.She is the host of the Simple SEO & Marketing podcast and creator of the Simple SEO Framework (SSF) group coaching program.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhat SEO actually is — and why it shortens your sales cycle by putting you in front of "hot leads" instead of cold audiencesWhy social media content has a half-life of less than 24 hours (and what to do instead)How Faith hasn't posted on social media for her business in 3+ years — and still growsThe #1 mistake entrepreneurs make with keywords (hint: you're speaking a different language than your customers)Why targeting 120 highly specific monthly searches beats chasing 10,000 broad onesThe free tools you can start using today: Ubersuggest and Google Search ConsoleHow to know if your SEO is actually workingFaith's simple framework: get your core pages optimized first, then add SEO-rich blog contentHow to write an SEO-optimized blog post in 90 minutes and maintain your traffic machine in 2 hours a weekKey TakeawaysWhat is SEO and why does it matter for small business owners?SEO (Search Engine Optimization) helps search engines like Google understand what your business does and surface your website to the right people at the right time. Unlike social media, which dies within 24 hours, SEO-optimized content can drive traffic for years. Faith describes it as "the crockpot of marketing" — you do the work upfront and results compound over time.How do I find the right keywords for my business?Faith recommends a two-step process:Start on paper — brainstorm words and phrases your ideal client would type into Google when searching for the problem you solve.Then validate with a tool — Ubersuggest (free version) connects directly to Google's API and gives you real search data, not estimates.Key insight: A keyword with only 120 monthly searches from your exact ideal client is far more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 monthly searches dominated by Nike and Under Armour.How long does SEO take to work?Most businesses start seeing results within 1.5 to 3 months, with more significant momentum around 6 months. The speed depends on your website's current health, how long you've had a web presence, and how competitive your keywords are.Can I do SEO without being on social media?Yes. Faith is living proof. She stopped posting on social media for her business over three years ago and relies entirely on SEO and long-form content (blogs, podcasts). Because SEO-optimized content continues to be indexed and discovered for years, it works for you 24/7 — even while you sleep.Episode Timestamps00:00 Introduction — Meet Faith Hanan02:25 Faith's background: SEO agency, homeschooling, and barrel racing03:55 Jan's personal SEO journey — 6 months in, seeing momentum04:32 SEO is the “crockpot of marketing” — why people quit too soon05:00 What SEO actually does (and why it shortcuts the sales process)06:33 The social media rat race and why SEO is a better long-term strategy07:13 Faith hasn't posted on social media for 3+ years — and it started as a church fast08:10 The half-life of social media vs. the longevity of blog content09:17 How to get started with SEO without getting overwhelmed09:45 The keyword language gap: how you talk vs. how clients search10:57 Why small, specific keywords beat high-volume broad terms13:40 Free and affordable keyword tools — Ubersuggest deep dive15:00 Start keyword research on paper first, then use tools16:36 How to know if SEO is working — Google Analytics & Search Console17:00 Optimize your core website pages before your blog19:16 Broken links, analytics, and getting coaching (barrel racing analogy)22:05 About the Simple SEO Framework (SSF) group coaching program24:42 Special discount code for Her Faith at Work listeners: JAN26:11 Where to find Faith — FaithHanan.com/framework26:25 The Workflow Exchange — SEO for blogging workflow from FaithResources & Links MentionedFaith Hanan's websiteSimple SEO Framework (SSF) Group CoachingKeyword Research Kickstart (affordable beginner course)Simple SEO & Marketing PodcastThe Workflow Exchange (free SEO for Blogging workflow)Ubersuggest (free keyword research tool)Google Search Console (free)Google Analytics (free)

What if the most powerful ministry in your life happens between meetings, on a job site, or at the ball field? John Martin sits down with Paul Lackie—business owner, husband, father, and prophetic voice—to explore how surrender and trust can turn ordinary moments into catalysts for hope and healing. No hype, no formulas: just a clear-eyed look at living led by the Holy Spirit when plans fall apart and people are hungry for something real.Paul shares how he integrates faith with landscaping, real estate, and community leadership without diluting either. He breaks down the difference between church expressions and marketplace wisdom, showing how language, timing, and presence open doors that pressure would slam shut. We revisit the story of Peter and John at the Beautiful Gate as a lens for modern life: stay interruptible, act in faith, and let God handle the outcome. That's how one faithful moment can spark a ripple effect across families, teams, and cities.We also demystify the prophetic. God's words aren't magic—they're invitations. Scripture becomes a roadmap when you “marry” it with action. Paul offers personal encouragements for listeners battling discouragement and longing for family restoration, and he challenges leaders to unite revelation with wisdom so their influence strengthens rather than fractures communities. We close with three anchors to keep you steady in uncertain times: immerse in the Bible, plant in a Christ-centered church, and commit to a small group where accountability and care run deep.If you're ready to see your work as worship and your schedule as an open door for God to move, this conversation will give you language, courage, and next steps. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review to help more people find this message. Where will you choose to be interruptible this week?For more information contact us atrtrdestiny@gmail.com

In Matthew 10:16, Christ told His disciples to be “wise” and “innocent” when they went “in the midst of wolves.” Today David Goetsch will show us how to be both wise and innocent as we work among people who sometimes behave like wolves. Temptation, greed, dishonesty, and misguided ambition have always presented challenges for Christians in the workplace. Add secular bias, political correctness and persecution to the mix, and the modern workplace becomes a foreboding environment for Christians to navigate. How, then, do we earn a living without compromising our faith?

This Labor Day weekend, James shares a reminder that our work is not separate from our faith — it's central to it. From the beginning, God gave work as a gift. Genesis tells us that man was placed in the garden to work and take care of it and Paul reminds us in Romans 12 that offering our “everyday, ordinary life” — our going-to-work, eating, sleeping, and walking-around life — is true worship before God.   Work is more than productivity; it's creativity, discovery, and an opportunity to partner with God in renewing culture. Whether you're in education, hospitality, health or leading in your industry, your work matters. It is holy to the Lord.   As we celebrate Labor Day, this message invites us to see our workplace as our worship space, and to live with fresh faith that God's Spirit is poured out not only in church services, but in boardrooms and classrooms. Our Monday is as sacred as our Sunday, and God is writing His story through our everyday.

God taught me how to shift the paradigm of work into a place of work interlaced with ministry, a workplace mission field. I prayed for those I worked with, I served them over and above, I befriended them, and I prayed with them. But I realized, none of these actions mattered if my work wasn't excellent. If I wasn't a great employee, with great work production, and great work relationships, no one would care about my faith. Others needed to see that my faith was real and that it applied to all of my life. Excellence needs to define who we are at work. Looking back, I made mistakes but I prayed with tons of people, made lifelong friends and even participated in leading one of my bosses to Jesus and another to rededication.  iWork4Him was born out of this story, can you say iwork4Him?

Did you know that our worship of God is to be revealed in the way we work? Many believers have not made this connection. As we discover in 1 Timothy 6:1-2, God puts His glory on display when we live out our faith at work.

What if the sacred-secular divide is more imagined than real? In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer sits down with sociologist Elaine Howard Ecklund (Rice University) and business professor Denise Daniels (Wheaton College) to unpack insights from their groundbreaking book Working for Better: A New Approach to Faith at Work. Drawing on the largest-ever study on faith in the U.S. workplace, they explore why so few Christians view their work as a calling, how churches may be failing to equip their congregants, and what systemic structures shape (or stifle) a sense of spiritual vocation. From strip clubs to CEO suites, gig workers to mission-minded healthcare, this is a conversation that will challenge you to see your work—and the work of others—through a new theological lens.

Scripture References: Genesis 1:26, 2:1-3, 2:15; Romans 12:2; 1 Timothy 1:12-16; 2 Kings 5; John 15Intro: Welcome! This sermon continues our "Word and Deed" series, exploring identity and purpose. We previously discussed being witnesses with our words; today, we focus on being witnesses at work. Since the average person spends about 90,000 hours—a third of their life—at work, it presents a vast opportunity. Let's reframe work through God's lens, understanding its divine origin and purpose, so our actions and attitudes align with His Word, creating a powerful testimony.Key Points:Work's Divine Origin & Purpose (Gen 1-2): Work existed before the Fall. God Himself worked (Hebrew: malaka - skilled, masterful work) in creation. Work isn't a curse, though sin brought frustration to it. God designed us in His image to work—to cultivate, care, create, and bring order (Gen 1:26, 2:15). This gives inherent dignity to all forms of labor, from the boardroom to the restroom.Reflecting God's Character (1 Tim 1:12-16): Our workplace is a stage where God displays His perfect patience and overflowing grace through us, just as He did through Paul. How we handle failure, admit mistakes, and offer apologies speaks volumes about the God we serve. We live by grace daily.Planting Kingdom Seeds (John 15): Jesus calls us to abide in Him and bear fruit. This fruit contains the "seeds" of the Kingdom. Through our consistent character, integrity, and care at work, we scatter these seeds daily. It's often a long game, subtly influencing the environment and people around us.Moments of Boldness & Transformation (2 Kings 5): Alongside seed-planting, God creates "transplanting" moments—opportunities for dramatic change, like Naaman's healing prompted by the captive Israelite girl. She saw past Naaman's position and illness to his need, showing compassion and courageous boldness rooted in her faith narrative. A renewed mind (Rom 12:2) helps us see people as God does.Humility & Vulnerability (2 Kings 5): Naaman initially resisted healing because the method seemed foolish and required humility. Pride can prevent us from receiving God's help or admitting need. True strength lies in vulnerability, knowing our identity is secure in Christ, not our performance or position.Conclusion: Work is not separate from our faith; it's a primary context for living it out. We have the opportunity to reflect God's character, plant seeds of the Kingdom through consistent faithfulness, and be ready for moments requiring bold compassion. Our security in Christ frees us to work with dignity, humility, and purpose.Call to Action: Reflect on your work life: What kind of "seeds" are you planting through your actions and attitudes? Is pride hindering you from vulnerability or acknowledging need, like Naaman initially? Ask God to renew your mind, give you compassion for coworkers (even difficult ones, like the slave girl had), and empower you to be His witness. Embrace humility; don't despise simple acts of obedience or seeking prayer for healing or help. Be part of God's work in the 170 million-strong US workforce.

In this episode, Jamie speaks with Arlin Sorensen, multiple time company founder, entrepreneur, and current Vice President Ecosystem Evangelism at ConnectWise. Arlin was a farmer turned tech entrepreneur having founded 22 companies or business units. Arlin shares how bringing the “Go Giver” philosophy into his businesses helped him create deeper relationships with customers and employees. Arlin is a man of deep faith and touts the importance of living authentically, bringing your whole self to work, which for him included incorporating Biblical principles into his business practices and speaking about his faith in the workplace. His passion for helping others master both business and legacy planning led to his creation of a Peer Groups business, a way to help leaders grow and support one another both on their business journeys and their pursuit of “success to significance.” Arlin describes great leadership as an upside-down triangle where leaders are at the bottom; “leadership is not about you.” Arlin's exceptional leadership and, in particular, his conviction about sharing his faith with others impacted me enormously in this discussion and I invite you to experience it as well.   During the episode, Arlin and Jamie refer to the following:   The Go-Giver: A Little Story about a Powerful Business Idea by Bob Burg and John David Mann Halftime: Moving From Success to Significance by Bob Buford Subscribe to Arlin Sorensen's Thoughts From The Farm email newsletter   Executive Access is produced by The Ideal Life, a platform that provides coaching, community, and content for people to grow both personally and professionally.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore the profound role that spirituality and personal belief (Amazon Affiliates) systems play in first responder decision-making. When faced with high-pressure situations, first responders often rely on more than just training—they lean on their core values, faith, and inner guidance to navigate life-or-death choices. You'll learn how spirituality influences decision-making in the field, the benefits and challenges of relying on faith in high-stress environments, and how to strike a balance between professional duties and personal beliefs. How Spirituality Can Impact Decision-Making in First Responder Roles: Explore how faith-based and personal belief systems serve as a moral compass in moments of crisis and uncertainty. Five Pros and Cons of Using Spirituality in Decision-Making on the Job: Pros: 1. Provides a Strong Moral Compass: Example: An officer who values integrity and honesty may rely on spiritual teachings to make ethical choices in complex cases. Why It's Beneficial: Reinforces ethical decision-making and ensures consistency in professional conduct. 2. Offers Emotional Resilience in Difficult Moments: Example: A firefighter who leans on faith during a tragic call may find strength in knowing they did everything they could. Why It's Beneficial: Helps first responders process grief, stress, and trauma in a healthy way. 3. Encourages Compassion and Fairness: Example: A paramedic who views every person as equally valuable may be more patient and understanding with difficult patients. Why It's Beneficial: Fosters professionalism and empathy, which can de-escalate tense situations. 4. Strengthens Decision-Making Under Pressure: Example: A SWAT officer facing a critical choice may turn to their core beliefs to ensure they act with integrity. Why It's Beneficial: Provides a stable foundation when quick, high-stakes decisions must be made. 5. Builds a Sense of Purpose and Fulfillment: Example: A chaplain who serves alongside officers may remind them that their work is part of a bigger purpose. Why It's Beneficial: Helps first responders find meaning in their service, reducing burnout and increasing job satisfaction. Cons: 1. Potential for Bias in Decision-Making: Example: A first responder may unconsciously allow personal beliefs to influence how they treat individuals with differing values. Why It's a Challenge: Professionals must ensure their faith guides rather than dictates their duties. 2. Conflict Between Personal Beliefs and Department Policies: Example: A medical responder may struggle with personal convictions when responding to cases involving controversial treatments. Why It's a Challenge: The duty to serve all individuals fairly may sometimes challenge personal beliefs. 3. Difficulty in Maintaining Professional Boundaries: Example: A first responder may feel compelled to pray with a distressed individual, but policies may discourage overt religious actions on duty. Why It's a Challenge: Maintaining a balance between faith and professional expectations requires discretion. 4. Misunderstandings Among Peers: Example: A first responder who openly discusses their faith at work may be met with skepticism from colleagues with different beliefs. Why It's a Challenge: Workplace harmony requires respect for diverse perspectives and experiences. 5. Emotional Burden When Facing Tragedy: Example: A deeply spiritual first responder may struggle with reconciling faith when witnessing immense suffering. Why It's a Challenge: Finding personal peace in difficult situations is essential for long-term resilience. How to Balance Spirituality with Professional Responsibilities: Learn how to incorporate faith-based values into decision-making while maintaining objectivity and professionalism. How to Respect Diverse Beliefs in the Workplace: Explore ways to navigate faith in a way that builds mutual respect among colleagues and community members. Steps to Use Spirituality as a Source of Strength Without Conflict: Discover practical ways to use faith for personal resilience without crossing professional boundaries. Why This Matters: For many first responders, spirituality plays a significant role in how they handle high-pressure situations, trauma, and moral dilemmas. By understanding the pros and cons of faith-based decision-making, you can harness the power of your beliefs while maintaining fairness, professionalism, and respect for all individuals.     Secure your firearm with my buy one get one free affiliate code from STOPBOX http://stopboxusa.com/LEOWARRIORS All viewpoints discussed in this episode are for entertainment purposes only and are simply our opinions based off of our own experience, background and education.

Inspired by a tough season at work, I've been thinking a lot about how our call to be set apart as Christians impacts our lives and relationships. The Lord calls us to be salt and light – but how can we do that even when we're feeling overwhelmed and frustrated at work? Today I'm sharing a little bit about what I've been walking through at work and what the Lord has been showing me through it!
