    S2 E11: "Navigating Through the NO" - Pastor Brian Dorn

    ⚡ WHAT HAPPENS WHEN GOD’S ANSWER ISN’T THE ONE YOU PRAYED FOR? In this episode, Pastor Brian Dorn and I talk about unanswered prayer, cancer, disappointment, surrender, and what it looks like to trust God when life doesn’t go according to plan. We talk about:🙏 What it looks like to trust God when His answer isn’t what we hoped for⏳ Why “no” or “not now” doesn’t mean God is absent💪 How walking through cancer can reshape your perspective on life, family, and ministry🌎 Why we can’t let our circumstances keep us from living with an eternal perspective❤️ How God can use our hardest seasons to impact the people around us✝️ What it really means to follow Jesus when the storm doesn’t immediately go away Sometimes faith isn’t believing God will remove the storm. It’s trusting Him when He doesn’t. The question isn’t always, “God, when will this end?” Sometimes it’s, “God, what are You trying to show me, grow in me, or accomplish through me while I’m here?” 🎙️ Guest: Pastor Brian Dorn — Pastor and Connections Director at Action Church✨ Host: Ian Hess 📩 Reach me directly: clock.into.your.calling@gmail.com📸 Instagram: @clock.into.your.calling▶️ YouTube: @Clock.Into.YOUR.Calling📱 TikTok: @clock.into.your.calling🌐 Website: clockintoyourcalling.transistor.fm 👉 Thank you for supporting the podcast and investing your time into this conversation! #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndWork #Faith #Purpose #Calling #Christian #Jesus #GodsPlan #FaithJourney #TrustGod #UnansweredPrayer #CancerJourney #DifficultSeasons #ChristianLiving #LiveYourFaith

    S2 E10: "Stop Hiding Your Weird" - Crystal Hutcheson

    ⚡ STOP HIDING YOUR WEIRD. What if the things you’ve been trying to hide are actually part of the way God uniquely designed you? In this episode, Crystal Hutcheson and I talk about calling, creativity, identity, and learning to embrace the unique way God created us instead of trying to fit a mold. We talk about:🎨 How our unique gifts and personalities can become part of our calling😂 Why Crystal’s comedy, creativity, Bible teaching, and writing aren’t separate identities🪞 How comparison can cause us to overlook the gifts God has given us🙈 The temptation to tone down parts of ourselves because we’re afraid of being seen as “weird”🧩 How God can use seemingly unrelated interests and experiences to prepare us for His purposes🙏 What it looks like to steward your uniqueness instead of hiding it✨ How the things that make us different can help us reach people others might not reach You don’t have to become someone God never created you to be in order to be used by Him. Sometimes the thing you’re trying to edit out of your story is the very thing God wants you to steward. What part of your God-given design have you been trying to edit instead of steward? 🎙️ Guest: Crystal Hutcheson — Senior Graphic Designer at Action Church | Future Author | Trained Stand-Up Comedian✨ Host: Ian Hess 📩 Reach me directly: clock.into.your.calling@gmail.com📸 Instagram: @clock.into.your.calling▶️ YouTube: @Clock.Into.YOUR.Calling📱 TikTok: @clock.into.your.calling🌐 Website: clockintoyourcalling.transistor.fm 👉 Thank you for supporting the podcast and investing your time into this conversation! #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndWork #Faith #Purpose #Calling #Creativity #Identity #LiveYourFaith #Christian #Jesus #GodsPlan #FaithJourney #Podcast

    S2 E9: "The Conviction Most Christians Ignore" - Jim Silva

    ⚡ IF THE GOSPEL HAS CHANGED YOU, WHY KEEP IT TO YOURSELF? In this episode, Jim Silva and I talk about spiritual conviction, sharing the Gospel, overcoming adversity, and what it looks like to live unapologetically for Jesus in everyday life. We talk about:📖 Why so many believers stay silent about their faith or drift into comfort⚡ Why there needs to be urgency around sharing the Gospel❤️ How to stand firmly on truth while still leading with love🗣️ How fear of what others think can keep us from living out our faith ⏰ Why Christians should have a responsibility and urgency to share the Gospel  Are you living with conviction—or just information? It’s easy to know what we believe. The challenge is allowing what we believe to actually change the way we live, speak, and interact with the people around us. If someone followed you around for a day, would they know you were a follower of Jesus? 🎙️ Guest: Jim Silva — Worship Leader at Action Church | Oviedo✨ Host: Ian Hess 📩 Reach me directly: clock.into.your.calling@gmail.com📸 Instagram: @clock.into.your.calling▶️ YouTube: @Clock.Into.YOUR.Calling📱 TikTok: @clock.into.your.calling🌐 Website: clockintoyourcalling.transistor.fm 👉 Thank you for supporting the podcast and investing your time into this conversation! #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndWork #Faith #Purpose #Calling #Gospel #Evangelism #Conviction #LiveYourFaith #Christian #Jesus #GodsPlan #FaithJourney #Podcast
