In this special extended edition episode, we just let the recorder roll for another unedited conversation between Overtrek, Easy Target, and Rollin Napoleon. As the crew gets things back on track, the trio is back together for a discussion on how we must learn to lose our life in God if we are to truly discover what our lives are about. Particularly in terms of our purpose, vocation, and our unique niche we bring to the table.
Thoreau wrote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.”
A few highlights:
Purpose is where we find our identity, it is given by God. Vocation is where we serve our community, it is living in God through our work. Niche is how I do my best ministry, when I bring my unique gifting from God into my work.
Purpose is who you are. Vocation is what you do. Niche is how who you are does what you do.
