EPISODE 5: How to Eat an Elephant: Doing Big Global Goer Dreams One Bite at a Time
EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
I’m posting this episode from India — the city where our family once stepped into a dream that felt far bigger than us.
Years ago, God placed something on our hearts. It required risk. Obedience. Movement.
And a willingness to take the first step before we saw the whole staircase. Not every dream becomes reality. But some do. So what makes the difference?
In this episode, I reflect on:
- Why some dreams move forward while others remain in the “someday” category
- Why certain ideas won’t leave us alone
- What keeps a dream clear in your heart but stuck in your hands
- What separates those who talk about a calling from those who walk it Whether the obstacle is the size of the dream… or the way we approach it
And we wrestle with a practical question:
If you had to eat an elephant — how would you do it?
If God has stirred something global in your heart — whether that’s publishing, moving overseas, launching something new, or reaching a people group — this episode will help you think differently about your next step.
The world is bigger than your zip code. Let’s go.
