Does God have a specific plan for each of us, or is it more like general guidelines for all of us? How do my gifts and abilities, my personality and particular circumstances, impact my vocation? What is the role of the church in this process? What are the needs of the world that call us to respond? Awakening Vocation explores these questions and breathes new life into an ancient idea - rousing vocation from a centuries-long slumber. Inspired by the broad and inclusive Vision of the Second Vatican Council, the book traces the history of Catholic reflection on vocation and offers a constructive proposal for the present. In plain language, Edward Hahnenberg argues that Catholic thinking on vocation has been frustrated by a deficient theology of grace and that the key to reclaiming the notion of God's call today lies in a Vision of God's self-gift reaching across al of human history and into every human heart. Rethinking vocation in light of a revitalized theology of grace helps move beyond earlier dead ends, opening up new ways of imagining discipleship and discernment within our wonderfully diverse and yet deeply divided world.

In this powerful new work, Janice Dunlap provides a vocational roadmap for Christians seeking God's will for their lives. She reveals that finding one's vocation is not about personal needs and wants but about serving and loving others. Jesus is the example of this. This book will help readers -- and catechists in particular -- to attain a clearer perspective on how their daily tasks point you to the passion and purpose of God already living in them.

Karl Barth (1886-1968), as a young Swiss pastor in Safenwil, struggled to make an organic connection between "the newspaper [contemporary sociopolitical events] and the New Testament." When he discovered "a strange new world of God within the Bible," God became the subject matter for renewing and transforming the world. This discovery helped Barth to integrate the world into his interpretation of the Bible and also impacted his theology of Christian vocation as divine summons to God's special freedom and obedience. Vocation in Christ examines the theology of vocation and reading Scripture among the Naga Christians in northeastern India, in conversation with Barth's theology of vocation. Social-scientific research is employed on congregations and Bible study groups to explore how the Naga Christians understand vocation and Scripture in light of their sociopolitical and religious context. This book serves as an introduction for Western readers of how vocation is understood from an Asian perspective and emphasizes the theme of vocation as Christian witness without accommodating to worldly values. It readdresses Barth's theology of vocation, which calls for a revitalization of Christian vocation in our contemporary situation. The primary claim of this book is that vocation is God's calling to obedience, and devotion to the love of God is reciprocal to the love of neighbor.

In the thick of modern life, we are tempted to forget what we are doing and why we are doing it. We are busy socializing, building careers, and looking for fun—but what’s it all for? The ancient concept of “vocation” has recently gained popularity as we return to questions about the meaning of life. Almost all religions include the idea that divine purposes should guide our lives; Christianity has particularly accented it. The God who called Israel and sent Jesus has something in mind for us. God’s call challenges us, but also opens us to the best sort of life imaginable. In Living Vocationally, the challenge and the joy of the called life is thoroughly explored. Part one considers the benefits of living vocationally, biblical traditions of call, and subsequent Christian understandings. Part two examines why vocation pertains not only to careers, but indeed touches every dimension of our lives and encompasses our full journey through life. Because every person’s life includes many callings, some very difficult, part three considers the virtues we need to live the called life well. Living Vocationally demonstrates why to have found a calling is to have found a good way to live.

The divide between the sacred and the secular life has dogged Christians for centuries. Even today, many Christians and church leaders still assume that the workplace is inferior to pastoring, Bible study, mission trips, and the like. This volume provides a different approach: it surveys the persistence of the sacred-secular divide in Christian history to develop a more robust theology of vocation while engaging with both the Old and New Testament. Charles offers a vision for numerous ways Christians are called to live faithfully in the so-called secular world.

There are many people who are confused and do not know how to make decisions in order to change the course of their lives. They have sunk to their lowest low and have compromised everything God intended them to stand for through fighting, substance use, and other wrongdoings. They need you. They need your word of encouragement. They need to be reminded they have a Father who loves them and who wants to see them turn away from worldly desires. Go out and pick up those who were told in schools by their teachers that they would never amount to anything and bought into those destructive words. Some have dropped out of school and have turned to marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy and anything else to escape from the pain of rejection, failure, self-destruction, spiritual mutilation and hopelessness. All they know is a lifestyle of partying and pretending to be happy. You see at what level are your responsibility, your call and your vocation? Much work awaits you, work that allows you to perform acts of nobility. This is not only a responsibility but also a privilege to serve humanity that deserves all the efforts of men and women of good will. Be fully aware of the shameful inequality in this world, between those who have and those who have not and of terrible conditions that condemn millions of people to experience hell on earth, without any hope of acquiring knowledge, having a decent house, education, or adequate health care. These millions of people should not be condemned to spend the rest of their lives in these valleys of tears and to attend each day the funerals of their friends and loved ones until there is no one to give them a proper burial. They are not victims of fate but of selfishness and lack of compassion on your part. You cannot come to the rescue of a person who is in danger because of illness or poverty if you do not believe that all men are created equal. You cannot save the ones you think are worthless. You see how spiritual awakening can contribute to major changes in the world? Spiritual awakening also allows those who do not know how to help to learn how to do it. Many want to help but do not know how or where to start. They do not have the experience you have, so they end up putting their time, money, gifts and talents in the wrong place. Once again you have the responsibility to share with them your experience and you will see how fascinating it is. Your greatness will come from the service you offer to your fellow pilgrims. It is a spiritual approach based on your beliefs and principles. And that is very important in the march towards the transformation of men and its influence on their destiny
