As we study the Bible, we are often stirred by questions that have difficult answers. However, by reading the Scriptures in full context, we recognize that everything we need to know is found inside the living and breathing Word of God. While studying abroad in Sierra Leone, I was brought into a new light that opened my eyes to many perspectives that I had never seen or recognized before. By carefully listening to my team and reflecting to the obstacles that I was facing while serving on the Mercy Ship in Sierra Leone, I was able to gain new perspective and insight that opened a door to what I now recognize as my calling in life.
Writing based upon the Word of God is where we grow and discover meaning. Having a vision is essential to being a leader. My vision throughout this piece is to demonstrate how both serving and studying help us to recognize our place in the world as well as our calling from God. Each person serves a significant roll, and I have attempted to help people to discover their own purpose in this genuine piece of literature.
