In this episode of Called & Courageous, I sit down with my mentor, Pastor Sherrel Williams—entrepreneur, minister, and founder of Sent For You Ministries, a dynamic “church without walls.” Pastor Sherrel shares her powerful testimony of leaving a familiar church setting to step fully into God’s calling, overcoming fear, and embracing a ministry that reaches beyond traditional walls.

You’ll hear how prophetic confirmations, uncomfortable nudges, and pivotal incidents pushed her toward obedience—and the practical lessons she’s learned about faith, discernment, and daily surrender. If you’ve felt God calling you out of your comfort zone, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to take that first step in faith.
