Table Talks Ep. 1 | Why I Quit My Church Job and Started Talking to Myself on a Mic

šŸŽ™ļø Welcome to the Everyday Truths Podcast! In our new table talks we’re 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 ministry—specifically from my role as a teaching pastor—and how that unexpected exit led me to start this podcast.

It's vulnerable, honest, and full of laughter, awkward metaphors, and… questionable pencil commentary. šŸ˜‚ Tiff joins me for this one, and we cover:

The unglamorous reality of ministry burnout

Identity and calling when the role disappears

What it’s like to start over (with no 5-year plan in sight)

And why small beginnings matter more than you think

If you’ve ever asked ā€œwhat now, God?ā€ — this one’s for you.

🟔 Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss Part 2 — where we dive even deeper into calling, clarity, and what it looks like to obey in the middle of the unknown.

šŸ‘‡ Drop a comment if this resonated. What part of your story has felt like a messy middle?
