In this post, Jonathon Falwell pastor of Thomas Road Baptist Church, discusses how clarity can release your personal calling.
Problem: You will never fulfill you vision if you are copying someone else.
Here are some of my highlights:
- I was studying hundreds of perspectives and models
- I was getting confused about the direction I should take
- I was trying to adapt other models
- I thought that to be successful I had to take all of the best practices of other churches and put them in place here
- The most important lesson I learned as a new senior pastor: God created me and called me to be me
- Realize that if God placed you where you are than no one can do a better job in that place
- When I quite trying to be like someone else I was free to focus like never before
