We talk about how to walk with God as you discover your spiritual gifts, and how serving can become an act of worship, not just another obligation. Angela shares how she learned her gifts (administration and hospitality), what it looked like to say yes to leadership in a homeschool community, and why trust in God matters when the what-ifs feel loud. We also talk about humility, sanctification, and how growth in faith often comes through simple, steady obedience in everyday places. If you are not sure where you fit, we give practical starting points: look for the needs around you, pay attention to what brings joy, pray honestly, and start small. We also talk about raising kids with a serving mindset, and why christian community is one of the best places to practice a faith walk in real life. Want to share what gift you think God is stirring in you, or ask for prayer as you take a next step?
