Have you designed a roadmap?   A roadmap is a game plan to form a vision for making the next season the best season --
It includes your long-term desires, personal mission statement, and a set of specific action plans to make a focused impact.
But what do you do when something grabs your heart that isn't part of your roadmap strategy?
When we encounter something devastating like a global crisis, family in need, or systemic injustice -- how do we know if it is a distraction or a redirection?
In this 30-minute webinar, we will dive into Halftime Alum, Jason Spaeth's journey of feeling called to preserve hundreds of thousands of acres of American grasslands - to being all in helping Afghan refugees in deep crisis.
Together we will explore wisdom for pivoting after coming face-to-face with a big need.
For those who can stay on, there will be an interactive Q&A for an additional 20-30 minutes.
