Missions Pulse 17: David Jacob

1024 576 David Joannes

Have you ever felt like your prayers are just bouncing off the ceiling? You can’t get the answer you’re looking for? Chances are, you’re not alone.

Far too often, we look for the “what” and forget about the “Who.” Understanding God’s call on your life begins with knowing God. The more intimate your relationship with Him the more you come to sense His heart and understand your role in His Great Commission enterprise.

In this episode of Missions Pulse, David Joannes interviews David Jacob, founder of Center for Missionary Mobilization and Retention and author of It’s Your Call. After defining popular terms, David Jacob shares three ways to grow in your understanding of God’s call on your life: prayer and Bible study, missionary mentorship, and short-term mission trips.

Feel like it’s time to know what God created you for? Listen in and be inspired in this episode of Missions Pulse.
