    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019

    For the church to fulfill her mission and purpose, it must be made up of disciples and workers; there are no spectators in the work of Christ.

    In his book, The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life, Os Guinness reviews the theology of calling and reveals what it means when one is called of God.
