What happens when your calling doesn’t unfold the way you imagined? In this episode of the Faithful Servants Podcast, we sit down with Pastor Sean Housman, who has served in ministry for over 30 years and has been pastoring Calvary Chapel Central Maui for the past 15.

From his wild teenage years in San Diego to Bible college in Murrieta, to years of hidden faithfulness before God opened the door to Maui, Pastor Sean shares his story of God’s relentless grace and guidance. Along the way, he unpacks powerful lessons for young adults and ministry leaders:

• Vision vs. Faithfulness — why your calling often requires patience and hidden obedience.
• Serving Under Leadership — how to honor and assist, even when you disagree.
• Pursuing Ministry — what it means to step out in faith before the road is clear.
• Teaching the Word — the difference between preparing for a classroom and a congregation.
• Endurance in Trials — from crushing seasons of waiting to running marathons after cancer.

This episode is raw, practical, and full of wisdom for anyone wrestling with calling, desire, and the reality of ministry.

If you’re a young adult longing to serve, a missionary on the field, or a pastor in the trenches, this conversation will steady your heart: faithfulness today is always the road to fruitfulness tomorrow.
