What happens when your career, title, and accomplishments are stripped away? Who are you then?
Former Sioux Falls Mayor Paul TenHaken joins Josie & Symone for a powerful conversation about faith, leadership, calling, and finding an identity that goes far deeper than a job title.
After building a successful career as an entrepreneur, Paul began questioning whether professional success was really where God wanted him. That wrestling eventually led him to leave the company he founded, step into the unknown, and run for mayor of Sioux Falls.
Paul shares how he discerned God's calling through prayer, Scripture, trusted mentors, the Holy Spirit, and even a surprising connection to the story of Jonah. He also reflects on the leadership lessons he learned during eight years as mayor, why great leaders need vulnerability and humility, and why he believes loving the people you lead is essential.
The conversation also explores what it looks like to openly live out your Christian faith in public life, how to love people who disagree with you, investing in the next generation, serving in Haiti, and the connection between physical, mental, and spiritual health.
Now entering a new chapter after public office, Paul shares a reminder for anyone wrestling with career, calling, or identity: your job may change, but your purpose doesn't—and your true identity is found in Christ.
