If you want a gentler, clearer way to understand how callings, and sustaining others, can actually increase your faith, this episode will bring so much peace and perspective.
Instead of turning the 5th Article of Faith into a pressure-filled or difficult topic, let's explore it as a Christlike invitation to receive, to support, and to be supported by the Lord and His people.
In this episode of Where We Gather, we dive into what it really means to be called of God, why sustaining matters more than we think, and how the Holy Ghost empowers us in both our callings and our questions.
Through honest stories, spiritual insight, and a fresh look at the order the Lord uses to organize His church, you’ll feel encouraged (not lectured) as you discover how God uses the simple (yet important) act of sustaining to shape our hearts and deepen our discipleship.
If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, struggled with sustaining someone in a church calling, or wondered whether you're really up for the task of a specific calling, this message will help you feel seen, strengthened, and guided by a God who knows exactly how to help you grow in Christlike ways.
