Table Talks Ep. 1 | Why I Quit My Church Job and Started Talking to Myself on a Mic
šļø Welcome to the Everyday Truths Podcast! In our new table talks weāre ditching the script and pulling up a chair for real, unfiltered conversations.
In this episode, I (Sherri) share the behind-the-scenes story of why I stepped away from vocational ministryāspecifically from my role as a teaching pastorāand how that unexpected exit led me to start this podcast.
It's vulnerable, honest, and full of laughter, awkward metaphors, andā¦ questionable pencil commentary. š Tiff joins me for this one, and we cover:
The unglamorous reality of ministry burnout
Identity and calling when the role disappears
What itās like to start over (with no 5-year plan in sight)
And why small beginnings matter more than you think
If youāve ever asked āwhat now, God?ā ā this oneās for you.
š” Make sure to subscribe so you donāt miss Part 2 ā where we dive even deeper into calling, clarity, and what it looks like to obey in the middle of the unknown.
š Drop a comment if this resonated. What part of your story has felt like a messy middle?
