Ep. 6 - How to Move Forward Even When You're Not Sure


Listen Later

In this episode, Ken Freire and Patrick Lowndes wrap up their four-part "Clarity of Calling" series by tackling one of the most paralyzing questions young professionals face: "How do I move forward when I'm not sure what to do?" They share personal stories of uncertainty, unorthodox first jobs, and how obedience to God often starts with a small step, not a complete roadmap. This episode highlights why waiting for perfect clarity can be a trap, and how God's guidance often comes after we've already started moving.
