What to Do When Your Job is Killing You

On this Focus on the Family broadcast, Gary Chapman and Paul White help listeners working a "toxic" job to manage their work well so that they aren't harmed emotionally, mentally, physically, or spiritually. Our guests define toxic jobs as those having a high level of stress, dangerous factors in the work environment, tyrannical leadership, and dysfunctional colleagues who try to undermine you and the organization. These factors don't just exist in secular workplaces – they can manifest in churches and Christian ministries, too.

If you find yourself struggling with circumstances like these, listen in as Gary and Paul offer practical advice found in their book Rising Above a Toxic Workplace: Taking Care of Yourself in an Unhealthy Environment. They explain the importance of not giving in to workplace toxicity and contributing to it by complaining, talking about others behind their back, and more. Our guests will also encourage you to consider how your difficulties can work to your benefit by helping you grow as a person and in your faith.
