Why You Aren't Changing the World [yet] With Guest Savannah Jones

Why aren't you changing the world yet? That question can stir ambition, guilt, insecurity, or frustration, especially if you feel called to more, but your life feels small right now. In this episode of The Dwelling Place Lounge, Phillip Jones is joined by his wife, Savannah Jones, for an honest conversation about calling, faithfulness, and what God is actually doing in seasons that feel slow, difficult, or unnoticed.  Using the story of Elijah and Israel's worship of Baal, we talk about culture, freedom, obedience, and why the desire to change the world often causes us to overlook the ministry God has already placed right in front of us. We also share personal stories about planting a church, moving across states, unmet expectations, financial strain, and learning that obedience doesn't always look like success. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, behind, or discouraged in their calling. Sometimes the issue isn't that you aren't changing the world yet, but that God is forming faithfulness in places you never expected. In this episode, we talk about: Why "changing the world" is often misunderstood  Elijah, Baal, and confronting culture faithfully God's sovereignty in uncomfortable seasons Obedience that doesn't look impressive Faithfulness in marriage, parenting, and everyday work The danger of ignoring the ministry right in front of you Why God so often works through weakness instead of strength   If you've ever wondered why God hasn't moved you forward yet, this conversation is for you.
