This Wednesday episode of The Working Word reflects on Romans 12:14–21 and applies its teaching to workplace conflict and leadership. Paul calls believers to respond to pressure, disagreement, and hostility with humility, integrity, and peace rather than retaliation or pride. In business settings marked by deadlines, competition, and strong personalities, this requires emotional discipline—pausing before reacting, choosing words carefully, and valuing relationships over winning arguments. The passage emphasizes that while we cannot control others, we are responsible for how we show up. By overcoming evil with good and pursuing peace intentionally, leaders build trust, credibility, and a work culture that reflects Christ more clearly than force or ego ever could.
