From Buckhorn to the World

A prayer spoken during a bitter Wisconsin winter led Naomi to the Appalachian hollers of Buckhorn, Kentucky. There, God gave her more than a nursing position—He gave her a calling, a wise mentor, and a spirit of compassionate service that shaped the rest of her life. What place, person, or unexpected circumstance has God used to shape yours?

God’s Calling and Your Legacy

Each person is uniquely gifted by God to contribute to the world, and neglecting to fulfill this role diminishes the collective whole. In later life stages, finding purpose involves a change of heart and perspective rather than a job change. Discovering one's calling is a continuous process, requiring practice, mentors, and adaptability. It's a journey marked by intentional decisions, failures, and the pursuit of mastery in certain areas, encompassing one's entire life.
