In the first ever bonus ep of Making Your Impact, Melissa shares her thoughts on how praying and then listening for the answer can help us discover our calling . . . but beware! It'll often take us right on out of our comfort zone (but also lead to awesome things). 

Melissa's thoughts on the subject were inspired by this morning's sermon by Craig Groeschel, pastor of Life.Church. Watch the sermon HERE.
