Church, Calling, and Leadership

• After a while, we realized God has been patient with us. He’s been gracious with us. He’s been sending confirmation, but at some point, we are actually being disobedient. Hi friends, I’m Christine Kaine and you’re listening to the Life and Leadership Podcast where we share conversations with faithfilled leaders from all over the globe.
• God, I have so much to be thankful for and even in the midst of my suffering, you are present. I feel like the next generation are rising and choosing consecration, not deconstruction. I’m an ambassador. I’m representing another kingdom. Now, my prayer is that our time together each week activates you to fulfill your God-given purpose and to follow Jesus wholeheartedly as you lead within your particular sphere of influence.
• Hey friends, I am so glad that you’re joining us today on the Life and Leadership Podcast. Now, before we jump into this episode, I just love you to take a moment to share this podcast with someone that you think could benefit from this conversation.
