Standing at the edge of something new can be exciting—and terrifying.

Through personal stories, a remarkable lesson from explorer Ernest Shackleton, and God's repeated command to "be strong and courageous," you'll discover that courage isn't the absence of fear—it's trusting God's presence in the middle of it. If you're facing a new chapter, a difficult decision, or an uncertain future, this episode is the reminder you need: the same God who walked with Joshua is walking with you.

Before God gave Israel the Ten Commandments, He reminded them who they were. In this episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad dives into Exodus 19 to explore the powerful truth that God doesn't just rescue us from something—He rescues us for something. Discover why your identity comes before your calling, what it means to be carried "on eagles' wings," and how remembering whose you are can change every decision you make this week.

In this practical and convicting episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad Lowe explores the story of Jacob and Esau and asks listeners a challenging question: What are you trading away for temporary satisfaction? Using a personal story about trading away a valuable Michael Jordan card as a kid, Brad dives into Genesis 25 and the moment Esau gave up his birthright for a simple bowl of stew.

Brad explains that Esau's mistake wasn't hunger—it was impulsiveness. He traded something permanent for something temporary, a pattern that still shows up today when people exchange character for convenience, integrity for popularity, family for success, or purpose for comfort. The episode challenges listeners to recognize the small compromises that slowly shape the direction of their lives.

To bring the lesson into the modern world, Brad shares the story of Ron Wayne, who sold his 10% stake in Apple for just $800—an ownership share that would eventually be worth tens of billions of dollars. While Ron Wayne has publicly said he doesn't regret the decision, the story serves as a powerful reminder that what feels urgent in the moment isn't always what's most valuable in the long run.

Through humor, relatable examples, and practical application, Brad encourages listeners to become "legacy people" rather than "immediate people," making decisions based on long-term impact rather than short-term cravings.

In this encouraging episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad Lowe explores the powerful story of Joseph and reminds listeners that some of life's deepest wounds come not from enemies, but from people they trusted most. Looking at Genesis 37, Brad unpacks Joseph's betrayal at the hands of his own brothers and challenges the common assumption that following God should always lead to an easier path.

Using the story of Walt Disney—who was once told he lacked imagination and faced multiple business failures before building one of the world's most influential companies—Brad highlights how setbacks, rejection, and disappointment are often part of a bigger story. He draws a compelling parallel between Disney's early struggles and Joseph's journey from the pit to the palace.

Throughout the episode, Brad encourages listeners to stop viewing difficult seasons as punishment and start seeing them as preparation. He contrasts "pit people," who allow pain to make them bitter, with "purpose people," who trust that God is still working even when life doesn't make sense. The message culminates in Joseph's famous declaration: "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good," reminding listeners that God can redeem even the deepest betrayals and use them for a greater purpose.

If you're walking through disappointment, a closed door, or a season that feels unfair, this episode offers hope that the pit isn't the end of the story—it may just be the beginning of what God is preparing you for.
