Episode 10: God's Will for Your Life Part 1 (with Taylor Cruse)

Here's Why: Beyond the Walls

In this episode, Zan and Austin co-host Taylor Cruse, the College Minister at Pioneer Drive Baptist Church, to talk about God’s Will and Plan for us. He himself had to learn through experiences in life about God’s plan and will. He helps us answer questions such as, Why do we need to follow God’s plan for us in everything that we do? If it’s God’s plan, why is it so challenging and difficult at times to follow it? Is it because I am forcing my plan instead of surrendering to God’s plan? My Plan vs. God’s plan? Is there such a thing as General God’s will and an individual-specific plan for us? How do I know it’s God’s plan? How do I follow it? It is very clear that men and women of all age groups ask these questions at different seasons of their lives. It is a challenging topic that we wish someone helped us wrap our brain around. Wait, did God already break it down? Feel free to contact us with further questions and concerns that you might have by emailing to [e-mail] .
