Meet Carole

Ever felt like your faith and your work were living in two separate worlds?

Me too.

Hi, I’m Carole Evans, and I’ve been on a journey to discover what it really looks like to live out my faith at work. Like many of you, I’ve wrestled with the notion of finding purpose in my professional life while trying to reconcile it with my faith.

Over time, God began to show me something different. He revealed the beauty and the symmetry that happens when we stop separating our faith from our work and start allowing our faith to shape the way we lead, serve, and show up every day. I began to realize that the gospel is so much bigger than I ever imagined and it absolutely has a place in the ordinary, in the meetings, in the conversations, and even in the mundane.

My spiritual journey has been an evolution all its own. Christianity was comfortable for me, a product of growing up in a pastor’s home. I accepted God as my Savior at 15, but it wasn’t until I entered my 30s that I dove deep into understanding His character and what it truly means to walk alongside Him. That exploration reshaped everything. I realized I didn’t need to chase after new job titles or roles to find fulfillment. Instead, I found He is my purpose, right where I am.

Today, I am deeply passionate about sharing this message and encouraging others to recognize the intersection of faith and work. Our workplaces are not just venues for transactions; our days filled with opportunities to reflect God’s love and grace. Each conversation, each decision, and even every mundane task can become a conduit for demonstrating faith in action.

I hope that by sharing my experiences, I can inspire you to seek the sacred in your ordinary, to uncover how God desires to work through you in your daily routine. Let’s transform our work from burden to calling; join me on this journey. Let’s learn to embrace the holy amidst the hustle, discovering the incredible ways God wants to use us, right where we are

Our Story

The Faith Work & Home Collective was born in my heart, piece by piece.

It all started with the podcast.

God began stirring my heart to create a podcast that would encourage people to live out their faith while pursuing their careers. If I'm being honest, I wanted to start a podcast about almost anything else. Maybe theology. Maybe stories of cancer survivors. I had so many ideas. I wanted something that felt a little less personal and a little less vulnerable.

But God continued to speak clearly, confirming the same message again and again.

So, in August 2025, Faith & Work was born.

Since then, it has been an incredible journey. I've had the privilege of sitting down with business owners, teachers, healthcare professionals, stay-at-home parents, ministry leaders, and everyday people who are discovering what it looks like to follow Christ in every area of life. Every conversation reminds me that our work matters to God because people matter to God.

As the podcast grew, another dream began to take shape.

What if we created office products that reminded people of who they are in Christ while they worked? What if a notebook, planner, or desk accessory could serve as a simple reminder that your work has purpose and your identity is found in Him?

That dream became the beginning of our product line, with our first collection planned for Fall 2026.

Then, in January 2026, another piece of the vision came to life with the launch of the Faith at Work & Home LinkedIn newsletter. Those articles were born from late-night conversations with my boys, lessons learned through my corporate leadership career, and countless hours studying Scripture. Over and over, God continued to reveal the same truth:

Our faith was never meant to stay within the walls of the church.

It is meant to shape the way we lead, the way we work, and the way we love the people in our homes.

Today, my office has a wall covered with sticky notes, outlines, product ideas, and books waiting to be written. Some of those dreams are already becoming reality. Others are still waiting for God's perfect timing.

So, come back often.

You never know what God might inspire next.

Whether you discovered us through the Faith & Work podcast, one of our products, the newsletter, a speaking event, or simply through a mutual friend, thank you for being here.

It is truly an honor to share what God has placed on my heart. My prayer is that everything we create points you back to Christ and equips you to live faithfully wherever God has called you, at work, at home, and in your community.

Welcome to The Faith Work & Home Collective.

We're so glad you're here.

Carole Evans
