“God’s call was clear. He was calling me to be a witness to others. He was calling me to be a voice.”
Buffy Payne had plans for a busy, full Saturday—until a divine interruption changed everything. God called her to leave behind the comfort of corporate America and step into her Kingdom purpose. She knew it was God; His call was undeniable. She knew He meant now. And she knew He was calling her to lead others and ignite their hearts with a fiery love for Jesus.
She said yes.
Her first assignment? To tell her story—every raw, unspoken part of it. The pain she hid, the doubts that haunted her, the brokenness she feared would disqualify her. But as she unearthed the deepest layers of her past, she realized the very struggles she thought were barriers to her calling, were the fire that forged her for a greater purpose.
Called is a relentless journey through pain and healing, trust and surrender, endings and new beginnings. It’s a declaration that God uses everything—every tear, every season of chaos, every painful trigger, and every act of forgiveness—to fulfill His greater purposes in our lives.
Now, Buffy shares her story to help others find the faith and courage to answer God’s unmistakable call, too.
After 30 years as a corporate professional, Buffy Payne left to pursue God’s calling on her life—to impact the world, introduce others to God, and fuel their love for Him. Buffy is a mother of five, author, speaker, consultant, nonprofit founder, and FEW Atlanta Chapter President. Buffy and her husband, Matt, are the ultimate team, blending family life with community service and professional brilliance, all the while building the Kingdom of God.
