Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this episode of Speaking of Faith, Bishop DeDe and Adam get real about “calling”—what it is, how we find it, and why it’s not always a straight path. They talk about living authentically, leaning on community, and staying faithful when things don’t go as planned. From the joy of saying “yes” to your gifts to the heartbreak when dreams shift, this conversation is an honest, hopeful look at how God calls us—sometimes in ways we never expected. Plus, they tackle a listener’s question about starting a second career in ordained ministry, proving that it’s never too late for a new chapter.Highlights:What “calling” really means—and how to recognize yoursWhy authenticity and community make all the differenceHow to handle disappointment when plans changeFaith and resilience in life’s unexpected turnsA real-life question about second careers in ministryChapters00:00 Introduction to Speaking of Faith00:55 Understanding Calling02:17 The Nature of Calling04:08 Authenticity in Calling07:15 The Dynamic Nature of Calling09:34 Responding to God's Call13:14 Navigating the Work of Calling17:54 Dealing with Failure in Calling23:16 Listener Question: Second Careers in MinistryAI Disclosure: To support our staff in their limited time, many of our episode summaries are first generated by AI and then edited by the Communications Director to accurately reflect and preview our podcast episodes.
