In this first episode of Called & Courageous, I share my personal journey of radical obedience—how saying “yes” to God cost me comfort, control, and certainty, but gave me purpose, clarity, and a front-row seat to His faithfulness.
From a 20-year career in the financial industry to being called into ministry through The 1 and Only Publishing, I open up about the trials, warfare, and sacrifices that came with my “yes,” and how God turned them into a 10-year vision to impact lives through 555,000 books.
If you’ve been delaying your God-given assignment—whether it’s writing a book, starting a ministry, or stepping into your calling—this episode will encourage you to trust God’s timing, surrender completely, and walk boldly in obedience.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why obedience to God often feels inconvenient but leads to breakthrough
- How God used a dream to confirm my assignment
- The unexpected events that pushed me into my calling
- The importance of surrendering your plans for His purpose
💡 Remember: Obedience is the new success, and your story is proof.
