In this week’s message from the Called to Lead series, Pastor Joe explores Isaiah’s calling in a nation shaken by King Uzziah’s death. While Israel saw an empty throne, Isaiah saw the Lord—and that vision reshaped his identity, his confession, and his willingness to say “yes” before knowing the full cost. This sermon challenges every follower of Jesus to see God clearly, live transparently, and surrender boldly to His call to lead.

In this week’s message from Called to Lead, Pastor Joe looks at the life of Jeremiah—one of the most faithful yet least “successful” prophets in Scripture. While Jeremiah never saw visible results, God called him to confront what was wrong, speak truth, and remain obedient even when no one listened. This sermon reminds us that God forms leaders who value faithfulness over fame and obedience over outcomes.

Pastor Joe Donahue launches the new series Called to Lead with the story of Moses—a man who discovered his calling in an unexpected place. Through Moses’ journey, we learn that God develops leaders in hidden seasons, assigns them to specific people, and empowers them through His identity, not theirs. No matter your season or stage of life, God may be shaping you to lead right where you are.
