Description
Today we’re talking to my friend Missie Branch about what to do when you feel like a failure in the work the Lord has set before you, and what true success actually looks like. Heads up, it might not look how you expected! If you don’t know her, Missie serves as vice president of community engagement for Life Collective, Inc. She is a graduate of Southeastern Seminary with a master’s in ethics, theology, and culture. Missie is married to Duce and together they have four children. Missie is the cohost of the Women & Work Podcast and serves as a trustee for Charleston Southern University and the chairman of the board of trustees at Lifeway Christian Resources. Missie and I are going to be talking about how we define “success” in our work or our ministry, and it might not look how you expected! We hope you enjoy this conversation!
