In this episode, Pastors Josh and Zack tackle a listener question about boycotting businesses that promote non-biblical values—especially around LGBTQ+ issues like Pride Month displays at Target. But they quickly move to what they see as the bigger, more personal issue: How do Christians faithfully navigate secular workplaces when companies push agendas that conflict with biblical convictions?

Topics covered include:

• The practicality (and limits) of boycotts in a globalized economy
• Working as salt and light without withdrawing from the world
• The difference between a company selling certain products vs. requiring employees to affirm or celebrate sin (e.g., wearing pride pins, using preferred pronouns, teaching gender fluidity)
• How to stand for conscience without being combative or a poor witness
• The importance of integrity, hard work, and character before you take a stand (Daniel in Babylon as a model)
• When it might be wise to leave a job—and when to stay and endure
• Legal protections for religious liberty and resources like Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF)
• The Protestant view of vocation: every job is a calling from God

The pastors emphasize that Christians cannot find a “perfect” workplace, but we are called to live with clear conscience, bold conviction, and humble faithfulness—being in the world but not of it.

This is practical, pastoral advice for teachers, corporate workers, and anyone facing increasing cultural pressure at work.
