Can someone actually be called to be a social media influencer? And what if your calling doesn’t fit neatly inside a church building, even though you feel like it should? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Kadi Cole, a seasoned leadership coach and ministry leader with experience spanning both church and secular spaces. Together, they challenge the assumption that ministry only happens on a stage or behind a pulpit. Spoiler, it doesn't!
They explore whether social media influence can be a legitimate expression of calling, how to prepare your heart before a platform grows, and why understanding the difference between primary calling and secondary calling reshapes how leaders show up online. Kadi also speaks into the often-hard waiting seasons…when God has called you, but the clarity, role, or next step hasn’t yet been revealed.
This episode is for Christ followers who feel a pull toward ministry and “influence” whatever form that may take. AND want to pursue it with integrity, humility, and deep dependence on God.
