Episode Description
Are you ready to tackle big challenges and pursue your passion and purpose? This week I talked about a big decision I had to make in order to pursue the purpose God has given me. Now it’s your turn!
As I weigh out what is important to me and where to invest my time, I’ve also been burning the candle at both ends many days. So, I have weighed things out to figure out what to keep and what to let go of. This week, I share how I’ve processed through advice from friends, comparing it with what God has called me to. I also ask you the question: What is standing in the way of God’s purposed for you?
Podcasting is at the heart of what I want to do because it’s an extension of the ministry that I believe God called me to. The ministry of reaching people who are hurting and broken and helping them find hope in the midst of the trashy stuff of life. However, the paying freelance work and the volunteer work had started to crowd out my passion.
I’m honored to do work for some great clients, but bottom line, I believe God is not honored when I forsake what he has called me to do—write and podcast—to spend all my time pursuing a paycheck.
