Sloth kills callings—sometimes we pray, fast, and weep, but never move to build. Drawing inspiration from the story of Nehemiah, Dr. Gabe highlights the dangers of prolonged grief, the imperative of spiritual discipline, and an often-ignored enemy—the spirit of sloth. After seasons of prayer and fasting, step up to build what God has shown you.Support the showText encounteratl to 94000 to stay up-to-date on all things Encounter.Worship with EncounterSundays at 9 AM ET | Wednesdays at 7:30 PM ETSupport EncounterText egive to 77977 Connect with EncounterFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | WebsiteConnect with Dr. GabeInstagram | YouTube | Website

In this powerful exploration of Acts 11 and 13, we're reminded that God often works in unexpected ways through unlikely people. The story of the early church spreading to Antioch challenges our assumptions about how God moves. We see that persecution and scattering became the catalyst for the gospel reaching Gentiles. This teaches us that even in our moments of difficulty or displacement, God may be positioning us for greater impact. The narrative emphasizes that it's not about our qualifications, but our willingness to say 'yes' to the Holy Spirit. Just as Barnabas and Saul were called out for a special work, we too are invited to be 'separated unto the Lord.' This means living not for ourselves, but for Christ who died and rose for us. As we minister to the Lord through worship and fasting, we position ourselves to hear His voice and receive His unexpected callings. Let's be encouraged that our past failures or perceived inadequacies don't disqualify us from God's purposes. Like John Mark, who initially faltered but later wrote the Gospel of Mark, God can redeem our missteps and use us in powerful ways.

Have you ever felt stuck pursuing a path that didn't truly resonate with you? A career, creative endeavor or major life change that you committed to fully, told the world it's what you were doing, and who you were now…only to realize it wasn't what you really wanted? Today, we're going to explore a more forgiving approach - one that allows you to experiment and gather critical data before going all-in. Imagine if you could "date" a potential pursuit, getting to know it intimately, before deciding whether to take that next step. What if the weight of having to definitively choose was lifted, allowing a sense of playfulness and curiosity to guide your exploration? My partner in conversation today is Charlie Gilkey, a strategic advisor, executive coach, founder of the Productive Flourishing consultancy, and author of the multi-award-winning book, Start Finishing and Team Habits.

This episode invites listeners to reimagine “non-teaching” callings as powerful platforms for ministry, reminding us that every assignment in the Lord's work is a chance to teach by doing and testify through example.
