Episode Synopsis

So many women long to know what their purpose really is, but often get caught up in chasing passions the world says will make them happy. The truth is, your gifts and passions were never meant to glorify you, they were designed to glorify God. When surrendered to Him, even the smallest skill or deepest desire can become a powerful tool for His kingdom.
In this episode, I’m sharing how God weaves your passions, natural talents, and spiritual gifts into His greater plan for your life. We’ll look at biblical examples like Bezalel, David, and Paul to see how God shapes and redeems gifts for His glory. I’ll also share some of my own story of how God shaped my love for words, counsel, and guidance into a calling I never expected.
You’ll learn the difference between natural talents vs. spiritual gifts, how to discern which passions are God-given, and how the enemy tries to twist your gifts for self instead of service. My prayer is that you walk away encouraged, knowing that nothing in your design is wasted, God has uniquely equipped you for His purpose.
