    41 Find Your Gold Thread with Jason Ward

    Fellow church member Jason Ward joins us to share his story and talk about how to discover your purpose through life's divine moments. Jason is a creative director, photographer, and entrepreneur who has written a book about finding your Gold Thread, which represents the pure and true purpose and calling God has for your life. Not knowing or understanding the course of your life can be one of the most difficult things we experience in the human condition. If that describes you, you're not alone! The good news is: God loves you, God hears you, and He desires to make your path straight. As we examine our lives we encourage you to examine your own moments and even failures that have shaped you into who you are (Rom. 5:3-4 & Eph. 2:10).
