358 | Walking with Giants: Making Time for the Calling That Feels Too Big, ft Lori Melton

Ever felt like God called you to something so big that your time and capacity felt way too small? Writing a book, launching a project, or stepping into a new season can feel overwhelming when the pieces don’t fit on your calendar.

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Lori G. Melton—spiritual director, retreat leader, and author of the upcoming Journey with a Giant. She shares how she moved from overwhelm to clarity as God called her to write and release her first book, and the boundaries she drew to make space for it.

Here’s what we cover:

• How God redirected Lori’s life in her empty-nest season
• 
  
• Why saying “yes” to a calling means saying “no” to other good things
• 
  
• The difference between having a plan on paper vs. a step-by-step focus map
• 
  
• How stewarding your calling is never meant to be a solo project
• 
  

Lori’s story will encourage you to stop waiting for permission and lean into the support God provides so you can step boldly into what He’s asking of you.
