About this episode

Thomas Carney shares how his trip to Uganda transformed his understanding of generosity and calling.

I wasn’t planning to release an episode this week. I just got back from Uganda, and honestly… I’m still processing everything. This trip didn’t just impact me—it shifted my entire perspective on generosity, serving others, and what it really means to live out your calling. I saw firsthand how the generosity of one person can change the life of a child… a family… even an entire community. And it forced me to ask a hard question: Am I really living generously with what I’ve been given? In this episode, I’m not giving you a structured teaching—I’m giving you a real, raw challenge. If you’ve been trying to figure out your calling, this might be the perspective shift you need. Because your calling isn’t about you. It’s about who you’re called to serve. If this resonates with you and you’re ready to take action in your life and calling, I’d love to talk with you. 👉 Schedule a free discovery call: https://pursuitofcalling.as.me/intro 00:00 – Welcome to The Pursuit of Calling 00:42 – Why I’m Skipping This Week 01:10 – The Message I Planned to Share 01:50 – What I Experienced in Uganda 02:30 – Meeting My Sponsor Kids 03:10 – A Real Look at Their Living Conditions 04:00 – How Blessed We…
