New look. New name. Same commitment to thoughtful, Bible-based teachings.
In our first session back from the holiday break, and under the new banner, we dive into the foundational topic of callings. We took our cues from Luke 14:15-24:
“When one of those who reclined at table with him heard these things, he said to him, ‘Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.’ But he said to him, ‘A man once gave a great banquet and invited many... But they all alike began to make excuses.’”
Most Christians treat God’s calling like a job offer they can negotiate. It’s not—it’s a divine assignment with eternal rewards—or consequences.
Hard Truth: Your Calling Isn’t Optional
There’s a reason we only hear about the Noahs, Abrahams, and Moseses of Scripture—they said yes. The ones who made excuses? They’re not part of the testimony. They died in the wilderness like the ten spies, or got shut out like the guests who rejected the banquet invitation.
Key Questions Explored:
How does God actually communicate our assignments—and how do we miss them?
What’s the real cost of saying “maybe later” to God?
Why do we treat divine assignments like they’re up for negotiation?
What happened to the people in Scripture who said no?
Listen to the full episode to discover the biblical pattern of calling that runs from Genesis to Revelation, why “I had other plans” isn’t the excuse you think it is, and what it really means when Jesus talks about salt losing its flavor.
Plus: Why the “when” of obedience is always right now—and what’s actually at stake when we keep God waiting.
