More than the challenges of COVID-19, finances, visas, logistics or anything else, moving a family across the world in 2020 has been a spiritual journey.

Andrew Montesi here, the host and producer of this podcast. Instead of an interview, I’m sharing part of my own story. A few months ago, my wife and I with our kids sold almost everything and moved from South Australia to California in the middle of the global pandemic, just in time for the US election!

Now that the dust is settling, I’ve had a chance to take a moment to reflect on what we’ve done … the pure faith risk, craziness and the miracles that have unfolded.

This really was a matter of putting everything I’ve learned from my guests on this podcast into action.

In this episode, I talk about our journey, the wild faith ride, the goodness of God and what we’ve learned so far. Even though I know this is really just the beginning.

I unpack my learnings in some detail, but here’s the dot points for your notes:

  • You need to hear from God for yourself
  • Being in the will of God, and aligned with his purpose, trumps circumstances EVERY time
  • There has to be unity in the (family) unit
  • Get lean and agile
  • Shut your mouth
  • Tear up your plan
  • Faith without works (faith without evidence of faith) is dead
  • Don’t take your old system into a new season
  • Seek Him first and everything else will work out (that’s a promise of God)
