Navigate My Gift Episode 17 l Prophets l Stephanie

Navigate My Gift Episode 25 l Servants l Brian

The Hidden Power of Serving: Brian’s Journey Within the Teacher Profession as a Servant Gift. Brian talks about discovering and living out his spiritual gift of service. We trace his path from thinking he was a teacher or leader to embracing servant-hearted ministry at school, church retreats, and in family life. Expect honest stories about hospitality, hands-on serving moments, and how serving builds relationships. The conversation covers practical takeaways: how to discern your gift, the "shadow" side of serving (resentment and over-committing), setting healthy boundaries and intentional "yeses," the importance of rest, and the role of community and mentorship. Brian also reflects on masculinity and faith, and closes with a prayer for servants seeking clarity and renewal. Brian also helps servants see beyond serving. As Brian said, "The gift will lead toward the way we are created to be in relationship." The servant gift does bless in the practical, but it leads to the relational as well. Both are so deeply  important.

Navigate My Gift Episode 23 l Mercy l Desi

Mercy in the Mountains: Desi’s Journey from Exterminator to Soul Care. Join us in a snowy Montana morning as Ben interviews Desi about discovering his mercy charisma gift and how that calling reshaped his life—from blue‑collar jobs and sales to serving staff and leaders at Refuge. The conversation traces his early instincts to help, surprising past as an exterminator, and how everyday roles revealed his gift long before he named it. Topics include the practical work Desi leads at Refuge (the Servant Academy), one‑on‑one check‑ins with young staff, building discipleship through care and action plans, partnership with Wild at Heart, and candid stories of spiritual warfare and deliverance prayer. He also shares how men can balance masculine strength with compassionate vulnerability and the emotional costs of carrying others’ struggles. Men can have the mercy charisma gift as often as women do, while allowing God to blend their masculinity with compassion.  Expect personal stories, practical mentoring tools, encouragement for young men seeking purpose, and a reminder that God’s timing and community shape growth—plus book and podcast recommendations for those wanting to go deeper.

Pastor Jalomi explains his work with The Leadership Farm, sharing a long-term vision to raise servant leaders and empower African youth to transform communities, break dependency, and steward natural and human resources wisely. He uses biblical examples—Joseph, Daniel, and Jesus—to illustrate strategic nation-building, value creation, and the importance of bridging salvation with societal transformation.
