Podcasts about Vocation

Ownership is staying connected to the vision with justin roethlingshoefer Today Justin is diving into the Vision and why it is important that you stay connected to the vision. The studies show from the best entrepreneurs out there, the best business people, that every six weeks you have to get reattached to your vision because it starts to deviate and so many other opportunities start to come our way that we can get distracted and when we get distracted, it's an easy point for us to stop wanting to get deeper into where we are going.Quote from the episode: “Stay focused on that vision, come back to it every 4 to 6 weeks. Be disciplined. On those conversations you're having with the intentionality in which you're moving so that you can stay true to who you are”-Justin roethlingshoefer Enjoy this Episode!Let's connect:Justin: Instagram Hyperlink https://www.instagram.com/justinroeth/ LinkedIn Hyperlink https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer-ms-7252a766/ Alyse: Instagram Hyperlink https://www.instagram.com/alysegaulin LinkedIn Hyperlink https://www.linkedin.com/in/alyse-gaulin-cpc-eli-mp-a7128211/ Own It Success is different so own your different!

We are fascinated with the topic of vocation—of trying to align the gifts and interests that we have with the needs of our communities and the world. Parker Palmer says that “Vocation does not come from willfulness. It comes from listening. I must listen to my life and try to understand what it is truly about – quite apart from what I would like it to be about – or my life will never represent anything real in the world, no matter how earnest my intentions.” This reminds us of the way that Maria Montessori talks about helping children find their “cosmic tasks” in the world. Yet, in our systems and in our daily lives we rarely have time to deeply reflect on our role in the world's unfolding. Today, we are pausing to talk about it!

In this special extended edition episode, we just let the recorder roll for another unedited conversation between Overtrek, Easy Target, and Rollin Napoleon. As the crew gets things back on track, the trio is back together for a discussion on how we must learn to lose our life in God if we are to truly discover what our lives are about. Particularly in terms of our purpose, vocation, and our unique niche we bring to the table. Thoreau wrote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.” A few highlights: Purpose is where we find our identity, it is given by God. Vocation is where we serve our community, it is living in God through our work. Niche is how I do my best ministry, when I bring my unique gifting from God into my work. Purpose is who you are. Vocation is what you do. Niche is how who you are does what you do. A special thank you to our friend Bruce Frye for the theme song, "Heart of a Champion."

Bette Dickinson tells the story of how saying "yes" to enfleshing God's message of the Magnificat became one painting, then twenty-five, and then an entire Advent devotional.

Kevin Robson, Chief Mission Officer for the LCMS, joins Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve Series to talk about discerning vocation especially as a second-career church worker, including the unique challenges and opportunities second-career church workers face, the process for discerning whether church work is the right path, the critical need for church workers, and the hopeful future we have in the Church. Learn more about the Set Apart to Serve Initiative at lcms.org/setaparttoserve. Christ's church will continue until He returns, and that church will continue to need church workers. Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is an initiative of the LCMS to recruit church workers. Together, we pray for workers for the Kingdom of God and encourage children to consider church work vocations. Here are three easy ways you can participate in SAS: 1. Pray with your children for God to provide church workers. 2. Talk to your children about becoming church workers. 3. Thank God for the people who work in your congregation. To learn more about Set Apart to Serve, visit lcms.org/set-apart-to-serve.

Vocation is integral to God's design for human flourishing. We were created to work and created to worship, and the routines of church and work coexist to form us. Our worship rightly orients our work and teaches us, in the words of Jesus, to “remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine.” What is the impact of a life, grounded in Christ, as it enters the world of work?Autumn and Hunter are joined by special guest Alex Harris, an attorney and former Supreme Court clerk, to discuss the legal profession, the judiciary, and the impact of faithful, grounded presence in this realm of work.Resources mentioned in this episode:"A Non-Anxious Presence: How a Changing and Complex World Will Create a Remnant of Renewed Christian Leaders" by Mark Sayers (https://amazon.com/dp/0802428576)"Why Liberalism Failed" by Patrick Deneen (https://amazon.com/dp/0300240023)

Even when we know how God is calling us, there is often anxiety in the early days of any vocation. After Krista shares her fears as a new mother, Brett expresses similar nervousness as he pursues a Masters degree in Social Work. Krista then asks Father Dave if he was also anxious in his early days as a priest, especially celebrating Mass for the first time.

If you ever feel like the things that make you different are keeping you from your calling – settle in, because you're about to find a double dose of belonging and courage in this week's episode. Deb Liu, CEO of Ancestry.com and founder of Facebook Marketplace, has spent her whole life shifting gears, seeking support and keeping her faith – all while climbing the ranks of Silicon Valley empires like eBay, Meta and PayPal. As a powerful C-suite tech leader, who is both a female and a person of color, Deb's personal and professional journey is a rarity. In this episode she opens up to Paula about what it was like growing up as a first-generation Chinese American in the South, where no one looked like her and why her faith was the key to grounding herself in a bigger belonging. Today, as a busy mom and caregiver to her own mother, Deb also shares her zero-regret policy to combat guilt, her tried-and-true advice for finding clarity in the midst of a challenge, and why she says the key to taking a step forward is actually taking a step back. Deb also offers up the personal observations and convictions that led her to write her new book, “Take Back Your Power: 10 New Rules for Women at Work”, along with THE question you need to ask to unlock your next promotion.

Firefighting pushes the body to breaking point; Kevin Goodan's poem locates the “ash-dark art” of firefighting not just in the wilderness where the team worked, but in the muscles of the firefighters. Kevin Goodan was born in Montana and raised on the Flathead Indian Reservation where his stepfather and brothers are tribal members. Goodan earned his BA from the University of Montana and worked as a firefighter for ten years with the U.S. Forest Service before receiving his MFA from University of Massachusetts-Amherst in 2004. He has taught at the University of Connecticut and has served as Visiting Writer at Wesleyan University. He is author of Spot Weather Forecast (Alice James Books 2021), Anaphora (Alice James Books 2018), Let the Voices (Red Hen Press 2016), and Upper Level Disturbances (Center for Literary Publishing 2012).Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.We're pleased to offer Kevin Goodan's poem, and invite you to connect with Poetry Unbound throughout this season.Pre-order the forthcoming book Poetry Unbound: 50 Poems to Open Your World and join us in our new conversational space on Substack.

In today's episode Justin and Alyse are diving deep into GRATITUDE, they share their experience traveling to Vietnam for their honeymoon and how that trip was a moment to practice gratitude. Quotes from this episode: “When life seems to be getting in your way, sometimes it's best to just sit back, let things happen, and take action once life starts to happen for you” - Alyse. “Realign on the mission, realign on the vision, and go back to work. Because being able to be aligned in gratitude, being able to be aligned in work ethic, being able to be aligned in vision allows us to always know where we're going, readjust if we need to, and know that we're exactly where we're supposed to be” -Justin. Let's connect:Justin: Instagram Hyperlink https://www.instagram.com/justinroeth/ LinkedIn Hyperlink https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer-ms-7252a766/ Alyse: Instagram Hyperlink https://www.instagram.com/alysegaulin LinkedIn Hyperlink https://www.linkedin.com/in/alyse-gaulin-cpc-eli-mp-a7128211/ Own It Success is different so own your different!

We follow the exposition of St. Augustine on today's Gospel.

In 2022, it's no secret that fewer and fewer practice religion, and more and more are openly hostile to it. So who you surround yourself with has never been a more critical decision. Well, you're in luck! Because there are intentional Catholic communities where it's simply people of the same faith and values living together under one roof. But what is it like to live in these places? And isn't it bad to cut yourself off from the “Real” world?  Well on this episode of HTG we dive into all that and more!   ------------------------------   Check out our parent network: thequestatlanta   Listen On Spotify   Lisen on the quest app: Android Apple   Follow us on Instagram:  @honest2god_ya   Stuff Mentioned: Find virtuous roommates in Atlanta FB group   Atlanta Catholic Young Adult FB group   City On Purpose   Net Ministries   Guests Socials: Producer Ben: Website Hannah:@hannah__21__ Michael: City On Purpose

Vocation stories are often powerful testimonies. It is amazing how hearing the way the Lord worked in someone else's life might help you understand His work in yours. Tune in to hear Fr. Joseph, Lauren, and Joe discuss Joe's journey to seminary!

What do you do when you sense a calling that you didn't see coming? If you're struggling with doubt or insecurity to make a pivot or outrun your past (and/or if you're a 90's kid who is curious what one of your favorite stars has been up to) then this week's episode is a must! Comedian, actor, producer, author, fun dad of four – and now, youth pastor, Kel Mitchell, joins Paula for an uplifting conversation that will encourage anyone needing a reminder that they are more than worthy of their calling. Kel's jaw-dropping journey had him cracking up kids on Nickelodeon's “All That,” “Keenan and Kel,” “Good Burger” and more… and eventually led him to answering the call to encourage, inspire and pastor kids in his church, a testament he credits to God's unique calling on each of us - “there's no comparison.” In this episode Kel takes Paula behind the scenes from his foiled SNL audition to his private struggles with addiction, divorce and deep depression. He also tells Paula about his hilarious new Young Adult book, “Prank Day” ... add this one to your gifting list and the kids in your life will thank you later!

Stand Alone Sermon / Psalm 147:12-13; 1 Corinthians 7:17; Galatians 5:13-15;1 Thessalonians 4:9-12 / Brad Brown  

When looking to take a leap in life, the best advice often boils down to these three words: trust your gut. Often that's easier said than done, but this week's guest is living proof that believing in yourself - every step of the way - changes EVERYTHING. Today she's the Creator of the wildly popular The Simplified Planner®, bestselling author, and mama of three – but just a handful of years ago Emily Ley was a newlywed with a love for luxe stationery (which was not in the budget), a knack for DIY and a budding Etsy account. As Simplified grew to hit major shelves like Target and Amazon, Emily hit each milestone while staying true to herself and knowing her “why.” In this episode hear Emily's encouragement for chasing the thing that lights you up, why she's a stickler for morning routines and the inspirational new project that was born out of a season of feeling forgotten. Consider this episode your reminder to “simplify” and trust that your calling and your instincts really do go hand-in-hand.
