Bill Hendricks | The Giftedness Center

You have a hardwiring from God, and it’s a beautiful hardwiring. And if you can discover what that is, that points to the reason you’re here. ~ Bill Hendricks

Bill Hendricks is a native Texan, Executive Director for Christian Leadership at the Hendricks Center, and President of the Giftedness Center, where he helps people understand their unique giftedness. He lives in Dallas with his wife, Lynn, and has three adult daughters. He has written over 20 books, including his latest, The Person Called You: Why You’re Here, Why You Matter & What You Should Do with your Life.

I’m excited for you to get to meet him today. Here’s the interview on Dear Daughters Episode 30.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT

 

Before you’re a mother, before you’re a wife, before you’re a daughter, before you’re even an employee, you’re a person.  And that core personhood is where your identity resides. ~Bill Hendricks

For every kind of giftedness that we have seen, there is a negative label out there. Probably 90% of the people that come my way have been shamed at some level for the very thing which is their greatest asset. ~ Bill Hendricks

I love how Jesus was always about telling people about their inherent identity. ~ Susie Davis

Try to encourage the child in their bent, and then see what opportunities open up. The child then knows that they’re valued, they’re loved, their parents are on their team, even if they would have done things differently. ~ Bill Hendricks

When you use your motivation, your giftedness, the telltale sign is that you gain energy from that activity. You enjoy the process. ~ Bill Hendricks
