Pastor Williams on liberation, spiritual warfare, and living your faith at work

In this episode of The Advisor — Business Edition, Stacey Chillemi sits down with Pastor Williams, author of The Corporate Christian trilogy, to unpack what it really means to live your faith in a corporate, divided, and often toxic world. Drawing on decades as a pastor, chaplain, and global trainer, Pastor Williams breaks down liberation—not just from systems and politics, but from self-oppression, social media performance, and the need to fit into a label or “voting bloc.” If you’ve ever felt like you’re playing a role instead of living your values, this conversation will hit home. You’ll learn: 🧭 What “liberation” really means—and how to stop living your life for likes and approval ⚔️ How spiritual warfare shows up through thoughts, biases, and modern media 💸 Why money, status, and class have quietly become our new “gods” at work 👤 How group identities (Christian, Democrat, Republican, etc.) can erase your true self 📰 How news cycles, politics, and social media keep us angry, afraid, and divided 🦠 What COVID-19 revealed about leadership, values, and how we treat each other 🔥 Why “marinating in your pain” for a season can lead to real growth and course correction 📚 The core ideas behind The Corporate Christian trilogy and American Christianity: Black Liberation, White Legalism—and how they apply to your career today If you’re tired of playing small at work, tired of feeling torn between your beliefs and your paycheck, and ready to live as a whole person—not a brand or a bloc—this episode gives you a language and a framework to start changing that today.
