The Pursuit of Calling

Don’t Aim to Be Understood: Living Out Your Calling with Chronic Pain and Faith


Listen Later

When you live with chronic pain or a long-term condition, people often say, “It’s understandable you couldn’t do it.” But understanding isn’t your goal — faithfulness is.

In this episode, Thomas Carney shares how to rise above the limits others place on you and pursue your God-given calling with purpose and excellence. You’ll learn how to:

  • Shift from seeking validation to walking in obedience
  • Live out Colossians 3:23 — “Do all things as unto the Lord”
  • Use your chronic condition as a testimony of God’s strength
  • Find the balance between asking for help and living with purpose

If you’ve ever felt stuck, misunderstood, or limited by your circumstances, this episode will encourage you to pursue your calling with perseverance, faith, and focus.
