Talk Truth 09.23.26 – Joel Malm | Pastor, author and Summit Leaders founder Joel Malm joins us to talk about recognizing God’s purpose through every season of life. Malm explains why that feeling that “there’s more in me” may point toward gifts and callings that haven’t been fully used, how difficult seasons and even failures can prepare us for what comes next, and what to do when God seems silent. He also discusses young people searching for meaning, learning to hear God’s voice, and the message behind his new book, The Circle Perspective: How Your Journey Has Prepared You for Your Higher Destiny.
