In this episode of Good News with Socrates, we explore the powerful calling of being chosen by God. Socrates shares biblical examples of individuals who were set apart for a divine mission—Moses, Joseph, David, Mary, John the Baptist, Stephen, Paul, and ultimately Jesus Christ Himself. Each of these chosen vessels endured trials, rejection, and suffering before stepping into the fullness of their purpose.
Socrates encourages viewers not to give up when facing difficult seasons, reminding us that those whom God calls, He also strengthens. Through personal testimony and scriptural references, this message highlights that being chosen is not about comfort—it's about transformation and impact.
Whether you're in a season of loss, spiritual struggle, or questioning your path, this episode will speak to your heart and help you understand that you are not forgotten. You are chosen for a greater purpose.
Key Scriptures:
Matthew 10:7–8 – Freely you have received, freely give.
John 15:16 – You did not choose Me, but I chose you.
Luke 1:26–38 – The angel visits Mary with the announcement of Jesus.
