One of Jesus' essential invitations is that we lay down our lives and that we do it in relation to our gifting, I think, in relation to the needs of the world at this time and I think that there's a great

Welcome to the Jesus Calling podcast.

Today's guests have discovered through time and testing

how to find joy amidst difficult circumstances and bring that time and

Author and speaker Matthew Kelly

and nonprofit leader Tammy Bullock.

For decades Australia native Matthew Kelly leader Tammy Bullock.

For decades, Australia native Matthew Kelly has tried to meet God's people where they

are and encourage them to move toward where God is calling them.

He's written more than 30 books with the aim of inspiring people, including his newest called Rediscover the Saints.

And in 2009 he founded Dynamic Catholic, an online community and resource center looking to give people help and hope.

are more attainable than living a holy life.
