Called For More with Krista Pettiford

Hey Beloved! Your calling is more than the work you do. In the world, your calling is your vocation.

Join Krista Pettiford each week for a conversation that explores how to live out your calling through every season of life with clarity, confidence, courage, and authenticity. Krista is a mom of four young adults and an empty-nester. She is an award-winning author and speaker and the host of the annual Called Conference. Krista led the women’s ministry for more than twelve years and still leads prayer ministry at her local where she's been a member for more than twenty years. Krista has a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Southern California Seminary and an A.S. in Computer Science. By day she is an IT Manager for a large corporation in Southern California where she lives near her children and family.

Hey Beloved, in this episode, I'm sharing what it means to be called to be a witness for Jesus. Not only do we bear record that He is the Son of God and the Savoir of the world but are to let our lights shine in the darkness and to be salt in the earth as a testimony of what He stood for.

In this day and age when injustice, mercilessness, and pride rule the children of the world we as Christians must remember what God requires of us.

“He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8)

As Jesus's witnesses, we are called to bear record not only of Him but of heaven's will.

Isaiah said, "Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins." (Isaiah 58:1)

Therefore those who remain silent and feel indifferent while injustice reigns will have to give an account of who side they were on. Because, "to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin." (James 4:17)

If you're a Christian brother or sister in ministry or with any sort of platform or influence it's time to use whatever God has given you for good - to speak up against racial injustice. We speak up for everyone and everything else, abortion, suicide, poverty, bad immigration practices and mistreatment, and human traffic. Let's use our voice to speak up against police brutality.

Together we can take a stand in this generation and let the world, hell, and Heaven know that bear record of what the Lord says is just, and right, and good.

Hey Beloved, in this episode, I'm sharing the power of God's love to shape your identity in Christ and transform you into who He called you to be.

We have been given an inheritance, a new name, and a new identity in Christ. We have been blessed with all spiritual blessing in Christ, but too often our experience in the world doesn't match the truth of what God has already done in and for us when He freely gave us all these things.

See, it's one thing to study your new identity in Christ but another thing to apply the word of God in your life and make your new identity in Christ your reality.

God transforms you into who God called you to be by the power of His Word. However, you must first believe what God says about you and His promises He's freely given to you. Then you must allow the Word to shape you.

When you believe in the power of His love, acceptance, and beauty they shape your identity in Christ and empower you to walk in your calling with clarity, confidence, and courage.

In this episode, I'm sharing three reasons worried doesn't work and what you should do instead.

Whether you worry about yourself, your loved ones, your calling and ministry, your business, your job, or your future it doesn't work.

The first reason is that worry prevents you from being productive. The second reason is that worry doesn't change anything but you, and not for the better. The third reason is that worry disrupts your peace, divides your focus, and disunites your soul. 

Jesus said, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." Matthew 6:34

Even though at times it seems impossible to do, not worrying is what Jesus commanded of us and so even in the worst of times it's something to not worry is something He has equipped us to do.

What you should do instead of worry is trust, pray, and do what you can do today. In this video, I'll help equip you in how to trade worry for trust God, cast all your cares in prayer, and focus on what you can do today.
