Saying Yes to God's Calling

#138: Do you feel led to start a new venture or change careers or start something new, but don't know where to start?


As our guest in this episode says, "Don't be afraid of the unknown. If God has called you, you are already qualified and ready for this." In the last year, we have seen more and more people start their businesses or take the leap and follow God's calling for their professional life. While it definitely seems scary and I can understand why you may hesitant, but I encourage you to listen to this episode and hear how Craig Pickerill started on his journey as an entrepreneur and how he helps others go on their entrepreneurial journey.

About Craig:

Believer. Husband. Father. Creative. Coach. From fetching coffee as a production assistant to working with clients such as Universal Pictures, Microsoft & Disney. I love helping Christians build a life of impact and experience God's heart in a new life-altering way.

Kelly Baader

Kelly Baader is a TEDx speaker, Amazon bestselling author, and ICF-certified coach who's spent nearly two decades helping Christ-centered entrepreneurs across three continents build profitable businesses without burning out.

After building her own "successful" business that nearly cost her everything that mattered, God met her in her kitchen on her 50th birthday with a clear mandate: gather His Esthers and Josephs and equip them to take their places in the marketplace.
