Finding and Accepting Your God-given Purpose (EP:1005)

What if 95% of the struggles you face are actually self-imposed?

In this powerful episode, Tom Wolf from Identity and Destiny joins us to discuss how discovering your God-given purpose can transform your life from one of fear, fatigue, and frustration into one of energy, confidence, and freedom.

3 Key Highlights:

1. The Three F's: Signs You're Not Living on Purpose If you're experiencing fear, fatigue, and frustration in your daily life, it's a clear indicator that you're not living aligned with your God-given purpose. Tom explains that when you discover and walk in your purpose, these negative experiences are replaced with energy, confidence, focus, and freedom. Your purpose becomes your "plumb line" for every decision—making it easy to say yes to what aligns and no to what doesn't.

2. Avoid Stupid, Self-Imposed Storms of Life Looking back on his journey through failed marriages and near bankruptcy, Tom shares a profound truth: approximately 95% of our problems are "stupid, self-imposed storms of life." The solution? Get a coach, mentor, or discipler. Without guidance and accountability, we make preventable mistakes that derail our lives. The Bible serves as God's coaching tool, but we also need real people speaking truth into our lives.

3. Become the Best Version of Yourself Before you discover your specific purpose, focus on becoming the best version of yourself in four key areas: physically, relationally, spiritually, and intellectually. Tom reads 30 minutes daily—consuming over 30 books per year—proving that small, consistent investments compound over time. Combined with daily time with God and intentional relationship building, this foundation prepares you for the purpose God has for you.

Conclusion: Tom's purpose statement—"to love and honor others while guiding them to a better understanding of themselves"—didn't just appear out of nowhere. It was validated by looking back at what brought him the most joy throughout his career. Your purpose is already being revealed in your life; you just need the tools and guidance to recognize it.
