#71 Bailey Stone [Find Clarity and Confidence in Your Calling]
I’m excited to bring you my conversation with my friend Bailey. We are talking about finding our unique callings and the confidence to live those callings out.
Purpose vs. Calling
Purpose – the reason for which something exists
Calling – a strong inner impulse toward a particular course of action, especially when accompanied by divine conviction
Discerning Your Unique Calling
- Get in conversation with God (pray, read His Word)
- Consider the things you are good at (talents/spiritual gifts)
- What breaks your heart? (Is this something that breaks God’s heart too?)
- What are you passionate about? What do you love doing?
Confidence
- Know that competence can be a progression and it can fluctuate
- Root your confidence in Christ
- Take a courageous step
- Be okay with not being the best
“You can be a confident person in general without having every single area of your life bursting with confidence.”
What does community have to do with it?
- We need encouragement from other people
- We need push back from other people
- We need people to build us up in order to have endurance in our calling
Discerning God’s Voice
- Does it align with the bible?
- What does your biblical community say?
- Is your thought or idea asking you to step outside of your comfort zone?

- Identify where you want to go
- Figure out what barriers are in your way
