Welcome to our latest heartfelt sermon, where we explore the profound themes of divine invitation and trust. Listen in as we recount the journey of Abraham, using his story as a touchstone for understanding how to follow God's direction in our own lives. We consider the idea that true faith involves joining God in His work, not the other way around, and that this may require trusting His guidance even when it contradicts our logic. A personal anecdote about a bus driver's foresight offers a modern parallel, reminding us that unseen challenges are best navigated with God's all-seeing knowledge at the helm.

This conversation takes us deeper into the transformative power of answering God's call. I share my own experiences of how a simple commitment to God led to unexpected places, like becoming a pastor and pursuing theological studies despite initial resistance. The struggles and academic challenges I faced were, in fact, God's redirections. This chapter invites us to consider the impact of divine direction on life's mission, emphasizing the fulfillment that comes from aligning with God's will, and the role of prayer and fasting in discerning that will. We discuss how true greatness for ourselves and our children emerges from this divine alignment, not from our own plans.

Join us as we examine the courage it takes to embrace 'God-sized' assignments and how they often come without a full roadmap. By looking to the examples of Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Daniel, and Abraham, we illuminate the nature of faith and the power of a deep, personal relationship with God. We also share reflections on overcoming personal hardships like loss, joblessness, and depression, emphasizing resilience and the transformative power of faith. Throughout, we encourage you to actively seek God's presence in your daily life and to be open to the adjustments required when responding to His calling. Tune in to be inspired to take immediate action and engage with God's work in a world that deeply needs it.
