What does it look like to live out your faith at work?
In this Table Talk episode, Sherri and her guest Tiffany dive into the messy reality of dealing with difficult people, avoiding workplace gossip, and holding onto biblical values when it would be easier to give in. With humor, honesty, and real-life stories (including Tiffany’s “Don’t Be Like Tiff” corporate confession), this conversation will encourage you to bring your whole faith into your workplace—without becoming a doormat or a preacher in the breakroom.
Whether you’re navigating office politics, corporate cubicles, or ministry staff meetings, this episode will help you find courage, compassion, and clarity for your everyday faith.
