Learn the difference between your Primary Calling (to follow Jesus) and your Secondary Calling (how you live that out).Ready to start living your purpose? This message offers six practical steps, beginning with the crucial first step: Surrender (based on Romans 12:1-2). You'll leave knowing how to use your gifts and passions to be faithful right where God has placed you today.
