Episode 26 - Anthia: Faith, Missions & Surrendering Success for God’s Calling

In this powerful episode of Redefining Possible with Peyton Hoffman, Peyton sits down with Anthia, a media missionary and leader within the Business as Mission movement, to share her incredible journey of faith, surrender, and purpose.
Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and raised in a non-religious household, Anthia’s life took a transformative turn when she became the first in her family to follow Christ as a teenager. As a third culture kid navigating identity, culture, and faith, she found her calling during her university years—where campus ministry became a pivotal space for spiritual growth, biblical literacy, and leadership development.
Despite expectations from her family to pursue a traditional and successful business career, Anthia felt a deep conviction to step into full-time ministry. This decision created tension and required her to fully surrender her plans, ambitions, and sense of control. Through that process, she learned to release the pressure of self-sufficiency and trust in God’s provision.
She shares powerful stories from her early mission work, including raising funds for her first international trip with no initial support, and stepping into unfamiliar and challenging environments that ultimately became some of the most joyful and formative experiences of her life.
Now serving as a producer and floor manager for BAM Global, Anthia is part of a global movement that views business as a platform for ministry—impacting economies, combating injustice, and advancing the Gospel in the marketplace.
This episode is a bold reminder that redefining success often requires surrender—and that true purpose is found in obedience, faith, and trusting God beyond what feels safe or expected.
