68. Called, Not Qualified: Parenting with Purpose When You Feel Unequipped


Listen Later

Ever feel like you’re not cut out for parenting? Like someone else would do a better job raising your strong-willed, emotional, or struggling child? In this episode, we look at Luke 6:12–16 and the unexpected team Jesus chose to change the world—and how that speaks directly to your role as a parent.

Jesus didn’t pick the most qualified. He picked the willing. The messy. The emotional. The overlooked.

And He’s doing the same with you.

This episode will encourage and equip you to:

  • Lead your family with prayer, not pressure

  • See your child’s struggles as raw material for calling

  • Speak identity over your kids like Jesus did with His disciples

  • Parent from a place of legacy—not just survival

    If you’ve ever wondered why you were chosen to lead your family, this conversation will renew your confidence and restore your vision. You are called, not qualified—and that’s exactly the point.

    I can't wait for you to hear it!

    xoxo,

    Danielle
