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.

In this episode, we delve deeper into Moses' teachings from Deuteronomy 3, starting with the victory over Og, the king of Bashan. We highlight God's faithful deliverance of Israel, fulfilling His promise despite the intimidating presence of giants like Og. The importance of remembering God's victories is emphasized through multiple scriptural references, reminding us of His mercy and power.

Next, we explore the request of the tribes of Reuben and Gad to settle on the east side of the Jordan. Though granted this inheritance, they were still called to assist their brethren in warfare until all had received their promised land. This principle extends to us in our spiritual journey, where we must wait for God’s rest and support one another in battle.

Finally, we are called to reflect on God's mercy, praise Him for His mighty works, and trust in His promises, just as the Israelites did.
