Discerning your distinct Kingdom assignment and contending for movement renewal

On this page

Core Question

What has God specifically assigned me to in this moment, and am I willing to walk by faith into forgotten places to fulfill it?

The usual question

How do I find my purpose and make an impact?

Overview

There are moments when God breaks through the ordinary and marks us forever. Tiffany Smith describes one such moment: a phone call with a friend in his final weeks of battling cancer, who spoke with unwavering faith about eternity and the temporary nature of this life. His words, she writes, "jolted me to life like a defibrillator restoring a Kingdom heart rhythm, granting me a higher perspective and deeper sense of otherness." That phrase — Kingdom heart rhythm — captures what this theme is about.

Our Kingdom assignment is not a career plan or a ministry strategy. It is the particular, Spirit-given calling each believer carries as a sojourner in this world. Tiffany draws on 1 Peter 2:11 to name the tension honestly: we are "sojourners and exiles," in this world but not of it. That in-between space is not a problem to be solved. It is the very ground on which Kingdom faithfulness is formed. "Lean into your 'otherness,'" she writes, quoting Jen Wilkin — "learn the contours of its face, feel out the steady grip of its hand. Because God intends it to be your lifelong companion."

This otherness is not isolation. It is orientation. Missional people, Tiffany argues, see themselves as missionaries wherever their feet take them — ambassadors for Christ in a foreign land, dancing to a different drum with a distinctive Kingdom rhythm. The Great Commission is not gender-specific, and it is not reserved for the professionally religious. It belongs to every part of the body of Christ, deployed together as co-laborers.

But assignment alone is not enough. The church also needs renewal. Tiffany's prayer for movement renewal names what is at stake with unflinching clarity: old wineskins have stiffened, strategies have soured, and the temptation toward empire and safety is real. The prayer is a contending — for the Spirit to breathe again, to make movement out of maintenance, disciples out of consumers, saints out of skeptics. It envisions small sparks, scattered light, and a united flame reaching a tipping point.

The path forward, Tiffany insists, begins not with better goals but with better listening. Anchoring rhythms — pausing, reflecting, abiding — are how sustainable faith and leadership are formed. Reflection leads to intentional obedience. From that place of union with Christ, the next steps become clearer and more aligned. This theme walks through three movements: discerning your Kingdom assignment, walking by faith in an Abrahamic coddiwomple, and contending in prayer for movement renewal.

The Model

The Framework

These three elements are not sequential steps. They work as a single integrated posture. Knowing your Kingdom assignment gives you the identity and the why. Walking the Abrahamic coddiwomple gives you the how, a practice of attentive, abiding movement that does not require a fully visible map. Contending in prayer for movement renewal gives you the sustaining power and the reminder that the work is God's before it is yours. Smith's writing consistently holds these together: the sojourner who knows whose they are, moves forward in faith, and returns again and again to prayer as the place where weariness is met with the breath of the Spirit. None of the three stands alone. Assignment without prayerful dependence becomes striving. Movement without identity becomes drift. Prayer without the courage to step off the map becomes a comfortable spirituality that changes nothing.

  1. 01

    Our Kingdom Assignment

    Tiffany Smith grounds this conviction in a phone call with her friend Marcus Redding, who in his final weeks of battling cancer spoke with unwavering certainty about healing, eternity, and the temporary nature of this body. His words, she writes, "jolted me to life like a defibrillator restoring a Kingdom heart rhythm, granting me a higher perspective and deeper sense of otherness." That phrase, Kingdom heart rhythm, is the key. Assignment is not primarily about activity; it is about orientation. To carry a Kingdom assignment is to be a sojourner, someone who is in this world but not of it. Smith draws on 1 Peter 2:11 to name the tension: "Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul." The sojourner lives in an in-between space, and that space is not a problem to be solved but a reality to be embraced. "Lean into your 'otherness'" is her counsel, because otherness is the very thing that reminds a person of who they are and whose they are. The assignment also carries a clear telos. Smith writes that our purpose is to glorify the King, not to be comfortable or happy. This reordering of priorities is what makes Kingdom assignment feel both costly and freeing at the same time.

  2. 02

    An Abrahamic Coddiwomple

    The prayer for movement renewal names this posture directly: "Give us courage to break rank, to step off the map, to walk with others into forgotten places where your gospel waits to rise again." That is the Abrahamic shape of faithful mission. It is purposeful, not aimless, but it moves before the destination is fully visible. Smith's writing on anchoring rhythms fills out what this looks like in practice. New seasons are holy ground, she argues, because they are moments when God is doing his deepest work beneath the surface, shaping roots before fruit appears. The temptation is to rush past the threshold, to fill calendars and set goals before listening. The Abrahamic coddiwomple resists that rush. It begins with abiding. Jesus' words in John 15 are the anchor: "Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me." Reflection, in Smith's framework, is not self-analysis for optimization. It is alignment, a way of bringing life back into harmony with the Spirit's leading so that next steps become, as she puts it, "clearer, lighter, and more aligned." The coddiwomple is not reckless wandering; it is attentive, prayerful movement in step with a God who is already steering.

  3. 03

    A Prayer for Movement Renewal

    The prayer Smith shares, written in the voice of Walter Brueggemann by Norm Dyck, names the current moment with unflinching honesty: "the old wineskins no longer hold structures, have stiffened strategies, have soured." That confession is not despair. It is the starting point of renewal. The prayer moves from confession to confidence: "You are steering. Your Spirit still moves, hovering over the chaos calling forth creation." What the prayer asks for is not success but surrender, not empire but movement, not safety but "the wild obedience of apostles, evangelists, shepherds, teachers, prophets risking their lives to reimagine your church as body as bride as movement." This is the shape of renewal Smith contends for. It is not a program rollout. It is a return to the apostolic imagination of the early church. The prayer also holds the global dimension of the movement. It closes with the reminder that the weary are not alone: "around the world your Spirit is stirring a global communion of the brave, the broken, the beautiful bearing your name, carrying your mission, and longing always longing for your Kingdom to come." Renewal is not a local project. It is a participation in something God is already doing across the whole earth. Prayer is the practice that keeps leaders connected to that larger reality rather than shrinking into the smallness of their own exhaustion.

  1. An Abrahamic Coddiwomple

    Tiffany introduces the coddiwomple frame through her own story of going overseas and later relocating to Atlanta. The emphasis is personal and embodied: faith as compass, obedience born from reverent fear rather than certainty, and the slow reshaping of her heart toward the nations. The Kingdom assignment is not yet named as such; it surfaces through the experience of uprooting and following.

  2. Our Kingdom Assignment

    The term 'Kingdom assignment' becomes explicit. A conversation with a dying friend crystallizes what the coddiwomple essay left implicit: every sojourner carries a distinct assignment, even in final days. The piece grounds the idea in Scripture (Matthew 5:14–15; 1 Peter 2:11) and introduces the language of 'otherness' as a permanent, cultivated posture rather than a temporary discomfort.

  3. Do Not Grow Weary

    The assignment frame widens from individual calling to collective movement. Tiffany names readers as 'called into BIG Kingdom movements' and anchors the exhortation in Hebrews 12:1–3. The emphasis shifts from discernment of one's own assignment to perseverance within it, adding the runner-fixing-eyes-on-Jesus image as a sustaining practice.

  4. A Prayer for Movement Renewal

    The scope expands to ecclesial and global scale. The prayer (in the voice of Walter Brueggemann, written by Norm Dyck) names the failure of 'old wineskins' and 'stiffened strategies' and calls for surrender to movement over empire. The five-fold gifting (apostles, evangelists, shepherds, teachers, prophets) appears as the agent of renewal, and the West's need to 'remember the ways of Jesus' becomes an explicit burden.

  5. Anchoring Rhythms for New Seasons

    The developmental arc turns practical. Tiffany offers downloadable reflection tools and frames discernment as a repeatable rhythm rather than a once-for-all crisis. The language of 'intentional obedience' and 'prayerful response' replaces the earlier urgency of uprooting. Reflection and planning belong together; transitions are named as 'holy ground' where God shapes roots before fruit appears.

Scripture Thread

1 Peter 2:11 anchors the sojourner identity that runs through this theme: believers are exiles whose otherness is not a problem to solve but a calling to inhabit. Hebrews 12:1-3 then supplies the endurance posture for that long obedience, fixing eyes on Jesus rather than on outcomes. Colossians 3:12-14 extends the argument outward, showing that the same sojourner community is clothed in compassion and bound together in love as it moves through the world.

1 Peter 2:11

Tiffany Smith quotes this verse directly in "Our Kingdom Assignment" to name what she calls the "in-between" condition of Kingdom life: "Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul." Her reading is not primarily about moral avoidance. She treats the verse as a description of ontological location. To be a sojourner is to occupy a space between two worlds, and that position produces a distinctive "otherness" that she argues should be cultivated rather than minimized. The tension is real and ongoing, not a problem to be resolved. She writes that embracing this otherness means learning "the contours of its face" and accepting it as a "lifelong companion." The verse grounds her claim that Kingdom assignment is inseparable from a particular kind of displacement: the believer's home is not here, and that awareness reshapes purpose, behavior, and belonging. The sojourner frame also connects directly to the Abrahamic coddiwomple she develops elsewhere, where following God into unknown territory is the recurring pattern of faithful life. Peter's word to exiles becomes, in her hands, an invitation rather than a warning.

  1. Hebrews 12:1-3

    In "Do Not Grow Weary," Tiffany Smith quotes Hebrews 12:1-3 in full as the closing scriptural anchor for her encouragement to Kingdom workers: "let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Her reading centers on the phrase "fixing our eyes on Jesus" as the practical discipline that makes perseverance possible. The race is already marked out, which means the sojourner is not navigating blindly but running a course that has been prepared. She pairs this text with her affirmations about purpose being "prepared in advance" and belonging being secured not by human approval but by God. The text functions in her argument as the antidote to the exhaustion that comes from front-line Kingdom work. Weariness is acknowledged as real; the text does not deny it. But the remedy is not rest alone. It is reorientation toward the one who endured more and finished well.

  2. Colossians 3:12-14

    In "When Church Community Disappoints," Tiffany Smith quotes Colossians 3:12-14 as the relational standard for Kingdom community: "Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." Her reading emphasizes that the identity markers in verse 12, chosen, holy, dearly loved, are the foundation from which the relational virtues flow. The clothing metaphor matters to her: these qualities are put on intentionally, not generated automatically. She uses the text to argue that deep community requires tenacious effort and long obedience, and that the sojourner community is itself a form of resistance against cultural isolation. In the context of the Kingdom assignment theme, the text extends the sojourner identity into its communal expression. The exile does not travel alone. The shared story, shared values, and shared relationships she calls for in movement renewal find their scriptural grounding here, in a people who bear with one another and bind themselves together in love as they move through the world.

Historical Context

Historical Context

Tiffany Smith does not argue from distant historical episodes. She argues from lived testimony: her own Abrahamic coddiwomples, a dying friend's deathbed clarity, and a prayer voiced on behalf of a generation longing for movement renewal. These are the witnesses she calls forward. Each moment is recent, personal, and verifiable by the person who lived it. Together they form a pattern: God has always called people to step off the map, and he is doing it again now.

Watch for the Distortion

Common Misreadings

These are the most common ways this theme gets flattened or misapplied. Each one is worth sitting with honestly.

MisreadingKingdom assignment means a dramatic, visible calling
ResponseTiffany's account of Marcus Redding reframes this entirely. His final assignment was not a stage or a program. It was the people he met in his last days, the ones God divinely placed in his path. His illness became the assignment. The ordinary, the painful, and the hidden are all legitimate territory for Kingdom work. Assignment is not measured by visibility but by faithfulness to what is directly in front of you.The people I meet and interact with in these last days are the ones God has divinely placed in my path to share the hope found only in Christ.
MisreadingFeeling out of place means something is wrong
ResponseTiffany names this discomfort as a feature, not a flaw. She calls it 'otherness' and argues it should be cultivated, not dulled. The sojourner tension, being in the world but not of it, is described as an ever-present reality that reminds you of who you are and Whose you are. The goal is not to resolve the tension but to lean into it as a lifelong companion.Lean into your 'otherness'—learn the contours of its face, feel out the steady grip of its hand. Because [God] intends it to be your lifelong companion.
MisreadingMission belongs to a specific gender or role
ResponseTiffany is direct: the Great Commission mandate is not gender specific. Men and women are co-laborers, and when their giftedness is woven together, the church is empowered to exponentially impact the lost world. Every believer, regardless of gender or title, is a missionary wherever their beautiful feet take them. The Kingdom assignment belongs to all sojourners.The Great Commission mandate is not gender specific; but rather, men and women are co-laborers and synergetic in community and mission.
MisreadingWalking by faith means having a clear destination
ResponseTiffany's Abrahamic coddiwomple reframes this. Abraham went out, not knowing where he was going. The coddiwomple, purposeful travel toward a vague destination, is itself the faithful posture. Complacency and stagnation are the dangers, not the absence of a detailed map. God asks people to follow into unknown places, and reluctance to do so is the thing worth examining, not the lack of a clear itinerary.Has God asked you to follow Him into an unknown place? Are you reluctant to follow? If so, ask the Lord to help you overcome the barriers in your heart, mind, and soul so that you have strength and courage to step out in faith.
MisreadingRenewal means building something bigger and more successful
ResponseThe prayer Tiffany shares asks for something different. It asks to be called not to success but to surrender, not to empire but to movement, not to safety but to wild obedience. Renewal in this frame looks like making disciples out of consumers and saints out of skeptics. The tipping point is described as small sparks and scattered light, not a single large institution. The measure is faithfulness to the mission, not the size of the outcome.
Q&A

Questions People Ask

Understanding the Kingdom Assignment

What does it mean to have a Kingdom assignment?

A Kingdom assignment is the specific purpose God prepared for you in advance, carried out as a sojourner in this world. It is not primarily about success or comfort. It is about glorifying the King, living with a Kingdom lens, and embracing the tension of being in the world but not of it.

Why does Tiffany use the word 'sojourner' so often?

Sojourner captures the in-between reality of Kingdom life. Scripture calls believers to live as sojourners and exiles, abstaining from passions that war against the soul. The word holds the tension: fully present in this world, yet not at home here. Your home is with an eternal King.

Is the Kingdom assignment only for full-time ministers or leaders?

No. The writings addresses every believer as called, chosen, and vital to the mission. Your purpose was prepared in advance just for you. You are called into big Kingdom movements and empowered by the Spirit. The assignment belongs to every sojourner, not only those in formal ministry roles.

The Abrahamic Coddiwomple

What is an Abrahamic coddiwomple?

It is walking purposefully toward a destination you cannot yet fully see, the way Abraham did. The Spirit whispers 'Follow me' in the wilderness and nudges toward the margins. Faithful movement does not require a complete map. It requires obedience to the next step God has already revealed.

How do I discern my next step when I cannot see the whole path?

Begin with abiding and listening before planning. Transitions are holy ground where God does deep work beneath the surface, shaping roots before fruit appears. Reflection that aligns you with the Spirit's work comes first. From that place of union, you move forward with clarity and peace.

Prayer for Movement Renewal

What does it mean to pray for movement renewal rather than institutional success?

The prayer explicitly asks God to call us not to success but to surrender, not to empire but to movement, not to safety but to wild obedience. Movement renewal is about ecosystems, not just churches. It is about disciples, not consumers. It is about the Spirit stirring what maintenance has stalled.

I feel too tired and discouraged to contend for renewal. What does the writings say to that?

The prayer anticipates exhaustion directly: 'When we grow tired, remind us that we are not alone.' The 'Do Not Grow Weary' piece echoes Hebrews 12, urging us to fix our eyes on Jesus who endured the cross for joy set before him. Weariness is acknowledged, not dismissed. You are not alone.

Isn't praying for movement renewal just wishful thinking when institutions are struggling?

The prayer does not deny institutional struggle. It names it: old wineskins have stiffened, structures have soured. But it locates hope in the Spirit who hovers over chaos calling forth creation, not in the health of existing structures. Contending prayer is an act of faith in God's agency, not denial of reality.

Living the Tension

How do I embrace my 'otherness' without becoming isolated or self-righteous?

Otherness is not superiority. It is a reminder of who you are and Whose you are. It points you homeward, not inward. The call is to lean into its contours and feel the steady grip of its hand, letting it become a lifelong companion rather than a badge of separation from the people around you.

What does a Kingdom assignment look like in ordinary, everyday life?

Sometimes God whispers in the mundane rhythms of an ordinary day. A phone call, a conversation, a moment of unexpected provision. Kingdom glimpses arrive in grief, in rest, in prayer pregnant with presence. The assignment is not always dramatic. It is often found in faithfulness to what is right in front of you.

Glossary

Kingdom Assignment

A Kingdom assignment is not a career or a program. It is the particular work God places before a person in a given season, including unexpected or difficult circumstances. Marcus Redding's illness became, in Tiffany Smith's telling, "his next assignment from God" — a divinely arranged context for sharing the hope found in Christ with those placed in his path. Every sojourner carries one.

Otherness

Otherness is the ongoing, interior awareness that this world is not home. Smith treats it not as a problem to solve but as a companion to cultivate: "Lean into your 'otherness' — learn the contours of its face, feel out the steady grip of its hand. Because [God] intends it to be your lifelong companion." It surfaces in the tension of being in the world but not of it, and it keeps the sojourner oriented toward the King.

Kingdom Heart Rhythm

Smith uses this phrase to describe what Marcus Redding's words did to her: they acted "like a defibrillator restoring a Kingdom heart rhythm, granting me a higher perspective and deeper sense of otherness." A Kingdom heart rhythm is not a feeling but a reorientation — the soul recalibrated to the realities of time, eternity, and the glory set before every sojourner in Christ.

Sojourner

Smith draws on 1 Peter 2:11 — "Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles" — to frame the believer's fundamental posture. A sojourner is not merely passing through; they are actively on mission while passing through. The sojourner holds the tension of belonging to a Kingdom not yet fully visible, dancing to a different drum, set apart and holy, yet fully present in the world they are sent to.

Kingdom Lens

A Kingdom lens is the perceptual posture that shapes how a sojourner sees the world. Smith defines the missional mindset as one "filtered through a Kingdom-focused lens which cultivates an awareness of what God is doing in the culture and joining him in his work." It is not a technique but a way of being — thinking, feeling, and behaving in ways that are, as Smith puts it, contrary to the world and baffling to those outside Christ.

Movement Renewal

Movement renewal is what Smith and her collaborators pray and contend for: a return to the wild, embodied, risk-taking posture of the early church. The prayer she shares names the longing plainly — "Make movement out of maintenance. Make disciples out of consumers." It requires breaking rank with stiffened structures, stepping off the map, and planting not just churches but ecosystems where the gospel can rise again.

Anchoring Rhythms

Anchoring rhythms are the structured pauses Smith commends for sustainable faith and leadership. They are not productivity tools. They create space to "pause long enough to notice what God is doing in us before asking what He wants to do through us," to acknowledge limits without shame, and to re-center around Christ rather than output. Smith frames them as especially vital at transitions, which she calls "holy ground."

Intentional Obedience

Smith distinguishes intentional obedience from goal-setting or strategic planning. Reflection, she writes, "leads us into intentional obedience" — a prayerful response to what God has already revealed. It is the movement from listening to acting, from awareness to alignment. When a leader anchors in Christ first, next steps become "clearer, lighter, and more aligned," and they stop chasing every opportunity to steward the ones God has placed before them.

Kingdom Sojourner

Kingdom sojourner is Smith's composite term for the Christian who holds together two realities at once: full presence in the world and full belonging to another Kingdom. Like Marcus Redding, a Kingdom sojourner sees every encounter — even illness, even dying — as a divinely arranged opportunity. Smith writes that every Kingdom sojourner is called to let their light shine so that others "may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

Holy Disruption

Holy disruption is the phrase Smith's prayer uses to name what apostolic, embodied community is meant to produce. It is not chaos for its own sake but the natural consequence of people who share story, values, and relationships deeply enough to spark something the institution cannot manufacture. The prayer asks God to raise up "catalysts, those dreamers, those prophets, and planters who live as if the Kingdom is now" — people whose presence disrupts the status quo toward the Kingdom.
