Send us a text In this week’s episode, I confess my most recent blunder related to the podcast – in real time – and use my mistake to share some reflections on the journey God has used in my life to uncover my God-shaped dream. It isn’t a formula; our dreams don’t really work like that. My hope in sharing these steps (beyond lacking an interview and still wanting to have something to post today) is that you’ll find yourself somewhere on this continuum and gain some insight about what you might need next in the journey toward your God-shaped dream. Here’s the list I reference throughout the episode. You’ll find timestamps for each item in the show notes here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/102 Steps to Uncovering & Pursuing Your God-Shaped Dream Know your value and worth in Jesus Believe He created you for a purpose Investigate your gifts, talents and life experiences that inform the identification of your dream Recover from the shame that keeps you in hiding or in fear Realize and own your true identity Build a set of internal and external tools to keep yourself returning to your identity in Christ Examine your dream and why you SHOULDN’T pursue it Pray with open hands about your dream Determine your next steps Consider where you’ll find the support you need to keep taking those steps Figure out what information and/or training you lack and where you might find it Be honest with yourself about what help you’ll need to recruit to keep going Please jump over to my Instagram or the Show Notes page and leave your comment about where you think you are on this list and what might be helpful to you in getting through that step and moving on to the ones that lie ahead for you.
