My wife works at the airport here in Northwest Arkansas (XNA). She said yesterday was probably one of the worst days she has ever had and she has worked there for almost four years. It was a combination of things that made it difficult, but the hardest was having to tell people who had bought [...]

Ethics training often comes to us as hypothetical scenarios that barely resemble anything we see as “regular” workers, and hardly provides a map to navigate the hazards challenging our integrity at work.

I am reading Ephesians this week and this scripture, of course, stood out.
