She explained that calling isn't always about clear direction but can also manifest as desire, disruption, or dissatisfaction. Ashley emphasized the importance of obedience in following God's call, sharing personal examples of how small acts of obedience led to meaningful experiences. She discussed the cost of answering God's call, which often requires letting go of comfort and familiar circumstances. Ashley stressed that true freedom comes from aligning with God's will rather than seeking approval from the world. The episode concluded with practical steps for those feeling called, including identifying current disruptions or desires, making small changes in daily life, and being willing to let go of relationships or activities that no longer serve one's spiritual growth.
