The session is led by Josh and Corey, members of E3 partners, who outline the significance of aligning one’s personal and communal visions with God’s overarching will and mission for the world. Josh kicks off the session with a candid introduction and an engaging explanation of the necessity to understand and embrace God's vision before attempting to fulfill individual or church missions. He emphasizes that seeking God's will for broader contexts, such as cities or nations, inherently shapes and answers personal mission questions. This framework challenges listeners to shift their focus from personal spiritual callings, often seen as "snowflake purposes," to a larger, kingdom-driven vision that God has for the world.

This refocusing serves as a call to prioritize God's broader mission over individual desires and dreams.

This includes references from Genesis, Psalms, Isaiah, Matthew, Acts, and Revelation, guiding participants to understand how God's intent to reach all nations and peoples is a continuous thread from Genesis to Revelation. The episode also discusses practical steps and attitudes necessary for seeing God's vision realized. Josh underscores the importance of having "big" vision and faith that extends beyond what congregations or teams can accomplish alone, emphasizing the power of cooperation and reliance on God. Furthermore, the teaching segment led by Corey includes interactive elements where participants are invited to read and reflect on scriptures, focusing on who God used and the extent of His glory in each passage. This exercise solidifies the understanding that God's vision is expansive and inclusive, aimed at reaching every person and nation. Personal anecdotes and testimonies provide real-world context to the teachings. Josh shares experiences from his interactions with various global ministries and highlights a story from a friend in Kenya to exemplify having a vision so great it seems to make God 'sweat.' This inspires listeners to elevate their expectations and prayers beyond modest or "weak sauce" targets to truly transformative aspirations. The session concludes with a series of next steps, urging participants to consider how they can inject this b
