Leave me crippled or stone me to death | Part 2
How do we hold people accountable without stripping them of their dignity? In this episode, we reflect on John 8:1–11 to examine workplace hypocrisy, injustice, and how we treat people when they get things wrong. We challenge Christian professionals to exercise discernment, resist the pressure to follow the crowd, and balance accountability with empathy. Wrongdoing should be addressed, but we must never make humiliation the price someone pays for their mistakes. Listen in and reflect on how you treat others when they fall short. Missed Part 1?

Unbound & Unharmed | Part 1
Sometimes, the real issue isn't the issue. In this episode, we explore Daniel 2–3 and the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego through the lens of workplace discernment. The issue appeared to be their refusal to bow to Nebuchadnezzar's golden statue. But their accusers revealed something else: these men had been promoted. So what was really driving the conflict? This conversation explores how to look beyond the surface of workplace disagreements, recognise what may really be at play, and avoid fighting the wrong battle.

Leave Me Crippled or Stone Me to Death | Part 1
There’s no perfect workplace. But what happens when the system isn’t the only thing keeping you stuck? In this episode of the CPN Podcast, Chinwe Okpala explores the story of the man at the pool of Bethesda who had been there for 38 years. Using John 5 as a starting point, Chinwe talks about workplace stagnation, mindset, leadership, and the discomfort that can come with growth. Sometimes, the systems around us really are unfair. But over time, we can also become so familiar with our limitations that they begin to shape what we believe is possible. The conversation also explores the balance between empathy and assertiveness in leadership. How do we help people grow without enabling them to remain stuck? And how can organisations ensure that their processes and policies serve people rather than become barriers to their growth? If you've ever felt stuck in a role, workplace, or season of your career, this is a conversation worth sitting with.
