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.

As the church calendar resets with the season of Advent, Christians are called to a time of preparation and self-examination in anticipation of Christ's coming. This episode explores the significance of Advent as a season of expectation and penitence, mirroring Lent's reflection before Easter. The discussion delves into the teachings of Jesus in Mark's Gospel, emphasizing vigilance and readiness for His return. Rather than focusing on predicting the end times, believers are encouraged to remain alert and active in their faith, serving as watchmen who share the hope and salvation found in Christ. Drawing from the Apostle Paul's letter to the Corinthians, the episode highlights the spiritual gifts bestowed upon believers, sustaining them through challenging times. As Advent unfolds, Christians are reminded of the grace and assurance that they will stand guiltless on the day of the Lord, a message of hope to be shared with others.…

Welcome to the Hypernikomen Talks - a podcast to encourage a vigorous faith. Hypernikomen is Greek for Conqueror or Victor. Paul used Hypernikomen at the conclusion of his first century letter to the followers of Christ in Rome to give them hope in the midst of their suffering. Paul wrote, "Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Can affliction or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? ... No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:35, 37-39, CSB) I encourage you to read all of Romans chapter eight to get the fuller story. I am your host, and it is my prayer that these Hypernikomen Talks will encourage you to be a victorious follower of Jesus, especially in the midst of your struggles.…

Prepare the Way of the Lord - Mark 1 17:55

Prepare the way of the Lord. John the Baptist calls for repentance as he echoes the words of Isaiah 40, which also promise comfort. Mark 1:1-8 (ESV) The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way, 3 the voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight,’” 4 John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 And all the country of Judea and all Jerusalem were going out to him and were being baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 Now John was clothed with camel’s hair and wore a leather belt around his waist and ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And he preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.…

The story of the brothers Crispin and Crispinian, during the Diocletian persecution, is remembered and commemorated on October 25th as Saint Crispin's Day. Saint Crispin's Day was made famous by Shakespeare with Henry the Fifth's speech on the battlefield against the French, where he proclaimed, we "shall be remembered . . . we band of brothers." In this Hypernikomen Talk, we examine the idea of belonging to a "Band of Brothers" as we consider Hebrews 13:1 where it is written "Let brotherly love continue."…
