Quotables from the Episode:

• God can and will do exceedingly, abundantly, above what you could ask hope or think. He desires to reveal your purpose even more than you desire to fulfill it.
• Proverbs 25:2 reminds us that it is the glory of God to conceal a matter, it is the glory of kings to search it out. God wants to take us on a journey of discovery. On that journey is where we find, truth, purpose and HIM.
• We cannot find our “do” until we know our “be.”
• Our purpose often isn’t pretty, but it’s perfectly ours.
• 3 Ways God often reveals our purpose: positioning, prodding, and pulling.
• Two common barriers to our purpose: trouble-free thinking and sensational thinking.
• We may miss our purpose because we are focusing too much on our career.
