062 Finding your Voice – Path to Success (A chat with Dan Miller)

Really enjoyed this – I have become a huge fan of Dan Miller, thanks to you and Cliff, Joel, and I listened to every podcast Dan produced and this was such a treat since I am still waiting for his next one to come out ! And how humble he is…. so nice of you to bring him on this show!

Dan and Joel, thank you so much for sharing this conversation with us! What a blessing!
How interesting (and surprising) to listen to the experience of Dan’s own father. It is shocking that he served in such a noble role and yet did not follow an authentic calling. Rather, even in the shoes of a minister, he simply did what others expected. Dan made excellent points about creating our own expectations rather than fulfilling the expectations of others. It is encouraging to know that it is not unusual to cause a stir when doing so, as it did so even in his own life. creating our own expectations rather than fulfilling the expectations of others.

I particularly enjoyed listening to how Dan came to peace with charging for services that involve using God-given gifts. So helpful, as this is very difficult for many of us! But, as Dan and Joel expressed, people do value our services and view us as professionals when we set fees. Also, charging for services does not preclude us from performing ministry work. As with much in life, peace and fulfillment come in creating balance and harmony.

As much as I respected Dan before listening, I respect and admire him all the more. He is humble, God-loving and an inspiration for all of us. As you said well, Joel, he is an “all-around rock star.” And, Joel, thank you for hosting another excellent interview!
