Character Before Credentials

Ep: Character Before Credentials | Proverbs 22:1

In a results-driven culture, it's easy to prioritize credentials over character. In this episode, Veronica explores why biblical wisdom places integrity, humility, and faithfulness above titles and how character shapes lasting influence at work.

What you'll learn:

• Why credentials get you in the door but character keeps you there
• How character shows up when no one's watching and pressure is high
• What 1 Timothy 4:12 teaches about being an example vs. proving yourself
• 3 practical ways character speaks louder than credentials
• Why God won't sacrifice your character to speed up your calling

Key insight: God is far more concerned with who you are becoming than how impressive you appear.

Scripture: Proverbs 22:1 | 1 Timothy 4:12 | Colossians 3:23
