In this episode, we explore the concept of purpose—the unchanging core of who God created you to be. Unlike assignments that shift with seasons, your purpose remains constant throughout your life. Discover how to recognize the purpose already woven into your design and live it out with greater intentionality.

2. Purpose vs. Assignment: Assignments change, but purpose remains constant across all seasons of life.
3. You Don't Need to Find Your Purpose: Your purpose isn't hidden—it's already been established by God before you were born.
4. The Purpose Discovery Exercise: Four practical questions to help you recognize your God-given purpose.
