Ep. 469 - The Transformational Truth on the Difference Between Passion and Purpose - Jade Simmons

September 18, 2023 • Tina Griffin

So many people misunderstand the difference between passion and purpose, which leads to major confusion, explains dynamic speaker, concert pianist, and team leader Jade Simmons. Jade is the CEO of Jade Media Global and her book, Purpose The Remix: A Mind-Blowing Reunderstanding of Purpose and How It Works, inspires readers to find their purpose and dig deep to discover their true calling. Jade explains how people often confuse temporary passion with lifelong purpose and why finding your purpose is incredibly important! In addition, Jade offers wise advice on how to speak with and encourage despondent and suicidal individuals who feel purposeless.

TAKEAWAYS

We have relinquished having a life of consequence to Hollywood celebrities, politicians, and historical figures

People often believe that purpose is merely their job title or their career, but it goes much deeper than that

Women can often feel confused about their purpose because they are pulled in so many different directions as a spouse, mother, etc.

Don’t follow your passion because it’s only a fuel source and it is temporary - follow your purpose instead

Justin is the founder of BestMan Media, which encourages men to pursue “reckless obedience by activating the calling God has on their life.” Justin’s foray into men’s ministries began when he kick-started a tradition with his children called “Daddy Saturday,” where he intentionally spent time with his children and planned fun activities for them to do together.

Justin focuses on being intentional, present (not perfect), and prioritizing his marriage to cultivate a healthy and happy home life.

May 6, 2024 • Tina Griffin

Rob Roozeboom was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy at the age of five, and by the time he was in sixth grade, he began to feel unloved and unworthy. After years of struggling with his own sense of self-worth and brokenness, the Lord used him to do mighty things. Rob is now the founder and president of Rise Ministries, which also organizes the popular RiseFest, a Christian music festival featuring incredible headliners like Skillet and Phil Wickham. Looking back, Rob discusses his heart for reaching America’s teens and pointing them to the arms of Jesus. “It doesn’t matter what you do, it matters who you are,” Rob shares, echoing advice from his wonderful wife. “RiseFest is more than music, it’s a mission,” he says, and it will be taking place in Sheldon, Iowa, on June 7 and 8, 2024.
