S2 E3 - From Feeling Unqualified to Being Called: Hosting My First Bible Study
Have you ever felt completely unqualified for something God was calling you to do? Me too, mama. In this episode, I’m sharing how I went from feeling totally unworthy and insecure to hosting my very first Bible study—the first one I’ve ever attended myself! Crazy, right?
Together, we’ll dive into the truth that God doesn’t call the qualified; He qualifies the called. I’ll share how I wrestled with doubt and fear, but how trusting God and leaning into His promises gave me the courage to say yes.
We’ll explore the stories of Moses, Gideon, and the 12 disciples, and how God reassured them with one simple but powerful promise: “I will be with you.” Plus, I’ll break down how scriptures like Hebrews 13:20-21, 2 Corinthians 3:5-6, and Romans 8:30 reveal that it’s God who equips us to fulfill His purpose.
And we’ll wrap up with Philippians 4:13 as a reminder that no matter what He calls us to do, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.
If you’ve been feeling hesitant or unsure about stepping into a calling, this episode will inspire you to trust God and take bold action. You don’t have to have all the answers—you just need to say yes.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why feeling unqualified is a normal part of stepping into God’s calling.
How God reassures us through scripture, even when we feel inadequate.
Lessons from Moses, Gideon, and the 12 disciples about stepping into bold faith.
