Called to More? Here’s What That Feeling Means

What do you do when God prompts you to move—but doesn’t give you the full plan? In this message, Pastor John Sorrell unpacks the story of Philip and the Ethiopian from Acts 8, reminding us that God often uses detours to fulfill divine assignments. Drawing from the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his own leadership journey, Pastor John challenges us to trust God’s leading, break through barriers, and speak up when the Spirit opens a door. Whether you feel stuck in the familiar or uncertain about what’s next, this message will reignite your faith to follow Jesus—even when the road ahead is unclear. If you’ve been around church but still feel spiritually empty, you’re not alone. This is your invitation to meet the One you’ve been searching for—Jesus.
