  1. Finding My Calling: What Is My Brand Identity?

  2. Four channels for God’s call • Everyone – those who follow Jesus and those who don’t – have an increasingly insatiable desire to pursue a work career that fits who they are. So, how do I know what God is calling me to do? • Calling is intensely personal. It is individual. My calling is mine and no one else’s.

  3. The way God calls seems to fit into four general categories: • By name • By placing desire in my heart • By arranging a clear path • By preparing an attractive option

  4. Calling by name • Paul • Moses

  5. It might be calling by name if… • …I hear God speak. • …God’s speaking is confirmed by other means

  6. It’s probably not calling by name if… • … What I have heard God speak before turned out not to be so. • …I can’t clearly identify the time or place of communication.

  7. Calling by desire: • Nehemiah

  8. It might be calling by desire if… • …the sense of urgency is persistent and relatively longstanding. • …I can identify the “for what?” factor.

  9. It’s probably not calling by desire if… • … I am completely unequipped to get the job done. • …I quit when I encounter significant hurdles.

  10. Calling by arranging a path • Josiah • Esther

  11. It might be calling by path arranged if… • …Whenever the position is talked about everyone looks at me. • …What everyone else expects makes logical sense to me too.

  12. It’s probably not calling by path arranged if… • … I have the wrong last name. • …The timing is out of synch.

  13. Calling by attractive option • Ezra

  14. It might be calling by attractive option if… • …The opportunity looks and feels right. • …There is alignment with prior experience and/or I am positioned correctly.

  15. It’s probably not calling by attractive option if… • … I don’t have the necessary freedom to move toward the attractive option. • …The longer I consider the option the less attractive it seems.

  16. Cracking the calling code • What is the state of my relationship with Jesus? • What specific clues tell me that Jesus may be steering me toward a career/job change? • What do my circle of advisors say? • Can I discern a pattern regarding how God has worked with me in the past? • Is my current career stretching me toward my skill-set, or away from my gift mix? • Is there a next logical step?
