Time Stamped Show Notes:

• [3m 25s] What pointers can you give to help people discern God’s vocational purpose for their lives? Ask for the Lord’s direction. Start making plans, set goals, knowing that the Lord will direct steps per Proverbs 16:9. Story of student at Appalachian State. Story of intending to open Golden Corral and going with Wendy’s instead.
• [8m 58s] Tell us about your book Prescription for Life. All about helping people understand that what they eat has a tremendous impact on their long-term help. What we eat in American clogs the arteries, causing strokes, heart attacks, and other health issues.
• [16m 34s] Ever had a challenge to your faith? Never a confrontational challenge, but always worried not doing enough. Story of encounter with Hindu man overseas and their discussion about Jesus being the only way. John 14:6, Jesus is the only way. Your work is your witness, so be the best you can be at work so they will listen to you when you witness.
• [24m 7s] Personal habit that leads to your success? Genesis 24:19, the Rebecca Principle. Do more than is expected. If you are excellent in what you do, you will be successful – and people will be more prone to listen to you when you discuss The Lord with them.
