Ep 330 show notes are here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/330
Are you living out the purpose God intended for you?
Maybe youâve spent years searching for clarity, trying to find your unique purpose as a Christian, and it seems like the answers are just out of reach. What if the key was there all along, hidden in plain sight?
Purpose can feel elusiveâespecially if youâre multi-passionate and have difficulty choosing just one thing to pursue.
However, Iâve learned some key lessons in the search for purpose that I wish I had understood earlier in life. Iâm sharing them with you today to shorten the window of time it takes for uncovering your purpose.
This episode is a reminder that purpose isnât something we manufactureâitâs a gift from God. No matter your age or stage, His plans have been woven into your story from the start. Your role is to look for the clues that reveal what Heâs had for you all along.
In this episode youâll learn:
đĽ The types of life events that shape your purpose,
đ§ The five obstacles that can hinder the realization of your purpose, and
đŁ Actionable steps you can take as you navigate the discovery of your God-shaped dream.Let this conversation be a reminder that God's timing is perfect and your purpose is already unfolding in ways you may not yet see.
Grab the Life Purpose Mapping Exercise, found here: https://www.merrittonsa.com/lifemap to help you find clarity regarding the purpose God has for your life.

Ep 329 show notes are here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/329
Does the Bible have something to say about your purpose?
You bet it does! You were uniquely created by God. He knew you before you were born. He put you on the earth in a specific time and place. And Heâs given you good gifts that He intends for you to use for His glory.
But if all of that is true, why is it so difficult to figure out your purpose? Iâll be responding to questions about purpose throughout the month of March, including what purpose is, who gives it to us, and why it matters.
In this episode youâll learn:
đŤTo understand your lifeâs unique purpose through the lens of Scripture,
âď¸A practical tool you can use right now to gain deeper insight about your God-shaped dream, and
đ How close friends/mentors can shed light on things you may not see about your gifts and strengths.
This conversation isnât about finding a dream job or achieving some elusive callingâitâs about recognizing that Godâs fingerprints are all over your intricate design. Itâs about seeing how your specific gifts, passions, and even struggles are woven into His greater purpose.
Whether youâre feeling stuck, searching, or simply wanting a deeper understanding of your place in Godâs story, this episode is a reminder that purpose isnât just about what we do but about who we become as we allow God to work through us.

Can God turn your difficult story into a meaningful ministry?
Maybe you sense God nudging you toward something meaningful, but youâre unsure of the practical steps to get there. Perhaps you see a need but feel overwhelmed by what you donât know. If thatâs you, youâre in the right place! In this second half of my conversation with Kirsten D Samuel, she shares practical steps for building a dream from the ground up.
Youâll learn:
How to embrace the uncomfortable beginnings of a God-shaped dream The power of sharing your dream with a trusted friend, and The profound impact of obedience to Godâs calling.This conversation is about the nitty-gritty of bringing a dream to life. Itâs about taking that first scary step, learning as you go, and trusting God with the outcome. Itâs about moving from âI could neverâ to âHereâs how it happened.â
Whether youâre ready to take action on your dream or just beginning to explore the possibilities, Kirstenâs journey shows us that with Godâs guidance, the path forward becomes clear as we take one step at a time and let go of our control along the way.

Ep 327 | Show notes are here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/327
Are you hiding a story that God might want you to share?
Kirsten D Samuel understands the weight of carrying a painful story alone. When God first prompted her to share her personal testimony about her husbandâs pornography addiction and their resulting marriage crisis, her answer was a firm âno.â She was comfortable mentoring young moms and staying in the backgroundâuntil God had different plans.
This is part 1 of my conversation with Kirsten, and in it she vulnerably shares how God transformed her ânoâ into a powerful âyesâ that resulted in a ministry that now brings hope and healing after marriage betrayal to hundreds of women who are her clients.
Listen in and youâll learn how she:
â¤ď¸â𩹠moved from managing her reputation to embracing Godâs invitation to heal,
đŻď¸discovered freedom by allowing God to redeem the messy parts of her story, and
â¨stepped into a dream that felt impossible in her own strength
Whether youâre carrying a difficult story or sensing God calling you to step out of the background, Kirstenâs journey reminds us that God doesnât waste our pain. He transforms it into purpose when we trust His leading.
Every week this month we are explore the theme of knowing your value and worth as a woman of God.

Do you see yourself how God sees you?
Not sure how to answer that? Start here: How do you respond when offered a compliment? Do you receive the kind words and say, âThank you,â or do you feel uncomfortable, brush it off, diminish it, or change the subject?
If itâs any of the latter options, you are not the only one! And weâre going to help you get past it here today.
This episode is about learning to see yourself as God sees you, in the fullness of His love, delight, and care. (Itâs not really about compliments, but how we respond to praise can be a symptom that our view of self is broken.)
We must break free from the lies that distort our sense of worth (see episode #325) and learn how to root our identity in Christ. Because big dreams built on the shaky ground of lies or confusion regarding our value and worth will soon crumble.
By the end of this episode, youâll have tools to begin embracing your identity as Godâs beloved and reject the temptation of finding your value and worth in performance, perfection, or the approval of others.
Come on back every week this month as we explore the theme of knowing your value and worth as a woman of God.

Could God use the pain of your past to grow a dream in your heart?

Is life so busy that you canât imagine making time for a dream?
Whether youâre working full-time, part-time, or somewhere in between; navigating life with teenagers; caring for aging parents or small children; serving in your community or your church, there are countless obligations that compete for your valuable and limited time.
Itâs hard to imagine where youâd find âextraâ time to write, pursue a business idea, or build the ministry youâve been dreaming about.
If youâre waiting to find time so you can get serious about a passion project, Iâve got to be honest with you: It wonât just happen. The daily demands of life will always stand in the way of your ambitions.
But what if a shift in perspective could help make space for what matters?
My guest Vivian Cumins is a writer, speaker, and host of the Juggling Life, Finding Balance Podcast, and this episode is about her journey of seeing her imbalanced life, listening to the Lord, and finally stopping to do something about it.
Listen in and youâll learn from practical examples about:
đśââď¸ How a morning routine can set the tone for a balanced and Christ-centered day,
⨠The importance of trusting Godâs plans, especially in challenging times, and
đĄ Prioritizing fun and self-care for a spiritually healthy and joyful life.
If youâve ever struggled to maintain balance in your own life, Vivianâs story offers an encouraging alternative focused on three pillars: God first, self-care, and fun.
May this episode be an encouragement toward more balance in your daily life and a deepening relationship with the Lord.
