Start Here: Small Faith, Real Jesus
Why this space exists
I built Valley of the Heroic for people who want to know God for real. Not hype. Not performance. Just honest formation. By formation I mean the slow, daily shaping of your inner life into the likeness of Jesus. Tiny choices. Real presence. Steady growth.
A quick story
Last week I caught myself scrolling while my daughter tugged my sleeve to show me something. I put the phone down, looked her in the eyes, and listened. It was small, but it felt holy. That is formation. Choosing presence. Choosing love. Choosing Jesus in the ordinary.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
What I mean by “calling”
Your calling is the unique way God’s love flows through your life for the good of others. It could be preaching, parenting, design, service, hospitality, or quiet faithfulness at work. Calling is not a title. It is a faithful response.
Simple next steps
- Pray one prayer today: “Jesus, I am here.”
- Open Scripture for five minutes. Start with Psalm 23 or John 15.
- Tell one trusted friend what you sense God inviting you into.
Small steps count. God meets you in them.
Questions for you
- Where are you tired right now, and what would it look like to bring that to Jesus today?
- Which practice feels most natural to you this week: prayer, Scripture, worship, or service?
- What tiny act of faithfulness could you repeat daily for seven days?
- Who helps you see Jesus more clearly, and how can you invite them into your week?
