Chosen. Before you were ready.

from Sunday Extended · host Compassion Church Dickson

What if your season of waiting is actually God preparing you for your calling?In this episode, we walk through Acts 13 and discover how Barnabas and Saul were handpicked by God, not because they were the loudest or most visible, but because they were faithfully seeking Him through worship, prayer, and fasting. Their story reminds us that God is still calling ordinary people to live out extraordinary purposes today.We'll talk about why intimacy with God always comes before assignment, how waiting is never wasted, and what it looks like to stay focused on Jesus in a world full of distractions and opinions.If you've ever wondered whether God still has a purpose for your life, this conversation will encourage you to trust His timing, listen for His voice, and boldly answer His call.**Scriptures Referenced:*** Acts 13:1–45* Isaiah 6:8* Psalm 46:10* John 10:27* Psalm 27:14* Isaiah 40:31* John 15:19Don't forget to subscribe so you never miss a new episode, and share this with someone who needs the reminder that they are handpicked by God for His purpose.
