## About This Episode

Have you ever felt too small, overlooked, or ill-equipped for what God has called you to?

In this episode of Perspectives Into Practice, my sister Bryanna and I start with a laugh about thrift store treasure hunting and end up walking through David's story in 1 Samuel 17. David was overlooked, teased by his brothers, and didn't fit the king's armor, yet he trusted God, grabbed a sling and a stone, and showed up. His everyday work in the fields was preparing him for a specific call. I also share times when I felt tiny and unwilling to take center stage.

In this conversation:

-   How God uses the mundane to prepare the mighty
-   What putting on the armor of God in Ephesians 6 can look like: prayer, memorized Scripture, and showing up for others
-   Why walking by faith is a present-tense invitation, even when you feel unqualified

If this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend who needs it, or reach out at [https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact](https://perspectivesintopractice.com/contact). I would love to hear from you.
