Summary

THE WORD THIS WEEK IS: calling.

What is your calling? Are we called to die? Are we supposed to follow our “passions”? So many times throughout various seasons of life we wonder, “what am I here on this Earth to do?” “What is my purpose?” “What are my gifts and talents?” In this episode we dive into the depths of this word and highlight the difference between your primary calling, your functional calling, and your daily calling.

Remember: No reserves. No retreats. No regrets.

Go rise up. || xxE

What's up friends, it's E!

And welcome to a new episode of Midweek Rise Up.

0:05.0

I pray that you're seeing God move and work in your life as you give gratitude and praise for the day that you're in.

And I'm super passionate about the word for this week, as I believe it's something that we all struggle with trying to figure out.

So as we head into the weekend, let's give ourselves a minute to just take a deep breath. Let's put our to-do list aside, just like last week, put our phone

0:25.6

down and unpack the word for this week together as we jump into the good news. The word for this

0:30.7

week is calling. I don't know a more triggering word when it's turned into a question that fast

0:36.9

tracks your stress levels.

0:38.6

What is your calling?

0:41.1

As a culture, we put such a heavy emphasis on finding your true calling or follow these steps on how to discover what your true calling is.

1:19.2

My calling. Are we born with it? Is it something God gave us and buried inside of our hearts for us to

1:26.6

discover? What if I told you your career

1:30.5

is not your ultimate calling? Your passions aren't either. And what if I told you there is a calling

1:37.5

underneath that? I asked a dear friend and mentor of mine what he thought of the word for the week.

1:42.5

And it was interesting. He said point blank without hesitation. I think we're called to die. And at first it left me speechless. And then
