In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

The Disciples and the Power of the Name: Part Five in the Series on the Book of Acts 26:00

26:00

We took a break for over a month and couldn't post any content because we went on a vacation to Rome, Italy, and then on a ten-day cruise. It was pretty hectic before we left, and I barely had any time to post content for our podcast. But now we're back, and we're hoping to start posting content weekly. This week, we're continuing our series in the Book of Acts. We're picking up the story right after the events surrounding the deaths of Ananias and Sapphira. When news of their deaths and the reasons behind them spread, a great sense of fear fell upon many people. At the same time, great signs and wonders were happening among the people, and many in Jerusalem were turning to follow "The Name." This made some people very jealous, which led to the arrest of all 12 disciples. Turn to Acts 5 as we continue the story.…

His name is Barnabas. Hear his story and that of Ananias and Saphira in this week's podcast.…

Jesus told the disciples to wait in Jerusalem after He left. To wait for the coming of the Holy Spirit.

One of the most glorious events during one of the most glorious Jewish festivals of the season. What was that event? Listen to this week's podcast to find out.…
