In this solo episode, Keith L. Callaway takes listeners on a reflective journey through the challenges, temptations, and internal battles that often reveal our deeper calling. Drawing from personal experience, spiritual insight, and practical wisdom, Keith outlines five core temptations that many people face—and reframes them not as weaknesses to hide but as indicators of what we’re meant to do.1. Opening Reflections & Setting the StageKeith shares that this episode was recorded ahead of time during a difficult week, where he became freshly aware of the areas he struggles with—sarcasm, self-control, and emotional response. He grounds the episode in the belief that small beginnings are where greatness starts.2. The Five Temptations as Indicators of PurposeKeith walks through five temptations and what they might signal about your calling:1. Voice & Expression:Temptations that harm your voice—physically or reputationally—may indicate you’re called to speak boldly, worship, or encourage publicly.2. Self-Doubt & Insecurity:If you battle internal insecurity, it may be because you were made to inspire others, and the enemy’s strategy is to diminish your confidence.3. Distraction & Procrastination:Those who avoid tasks may actually carry heaven-born vision, and distraction is simply an attack on their ability to bring ideas to life.4. Lust & Misdirected Desire:This temptation often distorts a deep, God-given capacity for intimacy, covenant, connection, and healing.5. Fear of Rejection or Abandonment:Those who fear being excluded may actually carry a calling to gather, reconcile, and bring belonging to others.3. The Think → Be → Do ModelKeith explains that transformation starts with thinking, which shapes being, which ultimately produces doing. Many of our temptations persist because our thinking is misaligned with who we’re meant to become.4. The Power of Spoken WordsA compelling example illustrates how speaking interrupts thought patterns—showing why praying out loud, reading Scripture aloud, and verbal affirmations are powerful tools for renewing the mind.5. Gratitude as a Healing PracticeKeith shares research showing that daily, intentional gratitude produces chemicals that help the body heal—spiritually and physically—showing how gratitude can fortify us against temptation.6. Closing EncouragementKeith circles back to the message of the show: we all begin small, but God designed us for greatness. He quotes Zig Ziglar:“You were designed for accomplishment, engineered for success, and endowed with the seeds of greatness.”
