(69/100) Navigating Naysayers: Overcoming Family Resistance to Your God Calling

When pursuing a vision that aligns with God's plan, Kingdom entrepreneurs may face negativity or doubt from family members or close friends who may not understand their God call. Understandably, this can be disheartening for individuals pursuing their purpose. Nonetheless, it is crucial to remember that these people may be genuinely concerned about protecting their loved one. Kingdom entrepreneurs must learn to navigate through such feedback with patience and wisdom, discerning if the critique comes from a place of love or fear. In this episode of Calling Over Comfort, host Coach Francine Ivey highlights her own experience in dealing with negative feedback from her father. She emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between the protective nature of a family member's perspective and the guidance that stems from a faith-based worldview. By requesting her father to pray and speak from Godly direction as her father, Francine successfully set boundaries and fostered a fruitful discussion about her path as a Kingdom entrepreneur.

When you're a Kingdom entrepreneur, we've given God the permission to lead us and guide us in a different way, right? We've given Him permission to be the CEO of our companies, be the CEO of our business, that He is our provider, that we seek first the kingdom of God. - Coach Francine Ivey
