Occupation, one of the biggest stresses in the world to date. Everybody has a job and a role to play but how in the world are we supposed to go about that as believers, especially if we're working somewhere we don't believe we're called to be long term? This new season is going to play a huge role in defining that for us, whether you're in vocation right now, or occupied with a something that you know is not your vocational calling. Spend some time with us as we open up this new series and allow the Lord to show us how to operate in occupation, vocation, and calling!

What does God think about social media? Is it a blessing or a curse? In this episode we discuss the good, the bad, and the practical parts of this tool that many of us have made a staple in everyday life. To be honest, you may not hear anything new. No stats, no persuasion, just a biblical approach to how one can become a better steward of this platform that connects so many people.

Join us on a journey of allowing the Lord to reveal more truths. We believe as we surrender more to him, that he would show us how to be more like him. Yes, he is still the answer, even in 2021.
