In this episode of Revival Cry with Eric Miller, Eric sits down with his son Jonathan to discuss life transitions, calling, and the importance of faithfulness in every season. Jonathan, a third-year engineering student at Messiah University, reflects on growing up in the Philippines as a missionary kid and how a fascination with design and building led him to pursue engineering as a way to serve God in practical and mission-minded ways.
Eric shares a powerful testimony of a prophetic encounter at Messiah University in 2001 that became a confirmation years later for Jonathan’s path. Together, they explore lessons from 1 Kings 19, where Elijah navigates transition, loneliness, and mentorship, drawing parallels to the responsibility of discipling the next generation. Jonathan emphasizes keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus during challenging seasons, while Eric encourages believers to embrace their unique calling rather than imitate others.
The episode concludes with a reminder that while the world is shaking with wars, crises, and uncertainty, Jesus never changes. True success comes not from earthly achievements but from living a life rooted in Christ and impacting others with His love.
Key Takeaways:
- Transitions require faithfulness and a focus on Jesus.
- Mentorship and equipping the next generation are vital to sustaining legacy.
- God uniquely prepares each person for their calling, combining gifts, skills, and identity.
- True ministry can happen anywhere—whether in missions, engineering, or daily life.
