Synopsis

Our notion of calling or vocation has become very narrow, and is often taken only to mean the calling to be an ordained minister. I want to rescue the idea from all those assumptions because I believe that God calls every human being to some particular self-giving task at each stage of their life' Francis Dewar. Written for all lay people, including those considering ordination, this new edition, which takes into account changes since the ordination of women to the priesthood, is itself a call for everyone to discover their unique journey.

About this title

From the Author:

Francis Dewar left parish ministry to run workshops and retreats to help people link prayer and action.

Synopsis:

This work on vocation is recommended to potential ordinands by DDO's right across Britain. The book updates references to women's ordination and now uses inclusive language throughout. Vocation in this context means that God calls every human being to a particular task, if only we can stop and listen. This book is about God's calling to us, and how we can learn to discern what that calling is.
