Living to a higher calling is a critical connection that all of us need to capture. It is this commitment that will take us beyond ordinary to extraordinary.

Finding vitality in life is simply a matter of discovering and possessing the God-intended space that He, in advance, has crafted for us. Ephesians 2:10 makes this very clear to us, “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
