In this new series, we’re going to be talking about those next steps… how do I live now after the divorce, the lay-off, the death, whatever it is. We’re answering the question, “Now What?” In part 1, I talk with my dad, Mark Herringshaw about how to find your Purpose, Vision, Mission, Values and Plan in a time of transition.

Purpose, Vision, Mission, Values and Plan

Sit down with a cup of coffee and some good instrumental worship music when you’ve carved out a few quiet hours. Start with a prayer of thanksgiving and thank God for what He’s done and then begin to ask these five questions:

1. “God, who am I?” This is your purpose.
2. “Why am I here?” This is your vision.
3. “What is my assignment right now?” This is your mission.
4. “How do I want to live?” These are your values
5. “When are we going to do this? Where? And with whom?” This is the plan.
