Finding Your Purpose in Life – Episode 42 (Replay)

Following last week’s episode with Jamie Winship, Haley and Dustin share a few thoughts on how finding your God-given purpose can feel inspiring … and often intimidating. 

 

For some, finding their purpose happens in a moment with clarity and certainty. For many, it happens gradually over time with setbacks, questions, and ongoing discovery. Trying to answer, “Why am I here? What is my purpose?” can feel overwhelming.

 

That’s why for this episode, we want to replay our discussion on finding your purpose in life. In this conversation from episode 7, Haley and Dustin break down the difference between purpose and calling, along with common setbacks and misconceptions we face when finding our purpose.

 

Subscribe to the podcast and tune in each week as Haley and Dustin share with you what the Bible says about real-life issues with compassion, warmth, and wit.

 

So you have every reason for hope, for every challenge in life. Because hope means everything.
