How Do I Know my Calling? Jonny Ardavani...

JONNY ARDAVANIS
About this episode

In this episode, Jonny Ardavanis discusses how we can discern God’s will, direction, or calling for our life.

Many people today ask: “What should I look for in a spouse? What career field should I pursue? Should I go into ministry or business?” At times, believers may be paralyzed by the abundance of opportunities before them and in turn, never end up making a decision at all.

In this episode, Jonny articulates that when we are already walking in holiness, God’s Spirit primarily directs us through our desires, our gifting, the input of others in our life, and even the needs we see around us.

The Lord is our Shepherd, He doesn’t lead us down paths of obscurity, He leads us in such a way that we can honor Him, be used by Him, and enjoy the life He has given to us under the sun.To pre-order Jonny’s forthcoming book entitled, “Consider the Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace In The Character of God” visit https://amzn.to/3zU9XJO

Jonny Ardavanis is the Lead Pastor at Stonebridge Bible Church in Franklin, TN and the President of Dial In Ministries. He formerly served as the Dean of Campus Life at The Master’s University and as a Camp Director at Hume Lake Christian Camps. Jonny’s heart is to see people understand and love the Word of God and more so, to love the God of the Word. Jonny is married to Caity Jean and they have two precious daughters.
