On this week's Ask Me Anything episode, Kayla asks, "What is my next step for a calling in ministry?"
I love this question, because I felt like God was calling me to ministry in my teen years as well, so I’m excited to answer this question.
Now, for those of you who maybe don’t quite feel that you’re called into ministry, I want to encourage you to listen to this anyway, because what we’re going to talk about will apply to you as well.
So, Kayla wants to know what her next step should be for a calling in ministry. So, let’s answer these questions first, what does it mean to be called? And is everyone called?

That answer is yes…and no. Does God have a ministry for each of our lives? Yes. We are all called to share the Good News of Jesus wherever it is we are called. We will make a difference in what it is God has called us to do. Now, will that be in full-time ministry, maybe, but maybe not. And if not, that doesn’t make your purpose any less important than someone who is called into full-time ministry. God has a different plan for each of us that fits so uniquely together in one giant puzzle. We need every piece of the puzzle in order to complete what God has called us to do.
Just a hint while you’re discovering your calling, your calling is going to have something to do with your uniqueness. Many times, we look at ourselves and all of the ways we are different from others and think that we are flawed…that there’s something wrong with
