A Mission In China: Saying Yes To God With Matthew Faye Terry (Inspirational)
Season 4 Episode 224
When God calls you out of your comfort zone, will you hesitate—or say “yes” and let your purpose rewrite your story?
In this inspirational, motivational episode, Matthew Terry—an English as a Second Language teacher turned screenwriter—shares how he went from unemployment in Chicago to answering a faith-driven calling in China. You’ll hear how one prayer (“Lord, remove the barriers if this is Your will”), a Psalm on a chalkboard (Psalm 32:8), and courageous obedience opened doors to disciple students, host quiet Bible studies, and spark a new creative mission: English Corner, a miniseries inspired by true events.
If you’ve felt stuck, scared to move, or unsure how to follow God’s nudge, this motivational speech-style conversation will help you motivate your next step, build bold faith, and act with purpose. It’s packed with inspirational takeaways on surrender, obedience, calling, and creativity—so you can stop waiting for perfect and start walking in purpose today.
What You’ll Gain:
- Practical clarity on discerning calling: how Scripture, prayer, and humble steps reveal God’s next move—even when uncertainty feels loud.
- A repeatable framework for obedience: surrender, trust, and act—so motivation becomes momentum and purpose becomes lifestyle.
- Courage to create: how to turn lived testimony into impact (like Matthew’s English Corner) and use your gifts to serve with bold, inspirational authenticity.
Press play now to fuel your faith with this inspirational, motivational conversation and let this motivational speech move you from hesitation to holy action today.
