Have you ever been in a faith community where it seems like you missed the "formula" and are over here thinking... differently? Does standing out feel like standing against? Often, I sat in a room full of believers and felt like the square peg trying to fit into a round hole again. Everyone looked the same. Talked the same. Quoted the same safe verses. And one day, I realized something terrifying: My desperate need to fit in was slowly killing the very calling God placed on my heart.

Have you ever been in a faith community where it seems like you missed the "formula" and are over here thinking... differently? Does standing out feel like standing against?
Often, I sat in a room full of believers and felt like the square peg trying to fit into a round hole again. Everyone looked the same. Talked the same. Quoted the same safe verses.
And one day, I realized something terrifying: My desperate need to fit in was slowly killing the very calling God placed on my heart.
Plot twist: What if that restless feeling, that knowing you don't quite fit the mold, that burning sense of "there's got to be more" – what if that's actually your Divine direction?
You calling isn't about fitting in. It's about standing out with purpose.
Think about it: Your unconventional questions aren't meant to be rebellious – they're revelatory.
Your inability to stay in the box isn't a problem – it's your calling.
Your hunger for something deeper isn't dissatisfaction – it's divine design!
When you realize your differences are actually your divine assignment, everything shifts. And here's what I've learned about that kind of authentic faith:
Conformity creates spiritual stagnation.
Your uniqueness isn't a flaw - it's your identity.
Standing out often means standing up for TRUTH as you know it.
Think about most impactful believers throughout history. They were the ones who dared to be different. They understood that spiritual growth requires the courage to embrace what makes you distinct.
Your calling isn't meant to blend in. It's meant to break through.
What's one way your faith community has challenged you to step into your unique spiritual calling?
Are you choosing authenticity and being addicted to Truth over acceptance today?
Well, you can stop apologizing for who you are and start embracing who you're called to be.
Your spiritual identity isn't meant to look like everyone else's. It's meant to look like YOU – fully surrendered and powerfully unique.
Don't let anyone weaponize Scripture to silence your God-given conscience or intellect.

Oh noooooo! Our Christmas tree fell over!! We bought our live tree last year. (1) Day One: We put up the lights and didn't like the way it looked. We took the lights down and bought some more to go add. (2) Day Two: Then we spent most of the day decorating and re-hanging the lights. Finally finished. The next morning our tree fell over – water all over the floor, strings of lights ridiculously tangled together, and favorite ornaments were smashed. (We had an 8' tree, and we put it on a little table because this is a high ceiling.

You have the mind of Christ... what does that mean? If we open up to possessing the womb of His mind, then His thoughts can produce a baby. Let the man-child emerge. This mind is: beyond intelligence, beyond learning, beyond understanding. Here are some ideas on what that means:
