     | 7,473 views

    Does our calling affect our choice of career? It may, but not necessarily. It’s interesting that Paul directed the Corinthians to remain in the calling in which they found themselves when they came to faith in Christ (1 Cor. 7:17–24).

    Can God Use Me? Nowadays people often speak of a “calling” to signify a career that one has made a lifelong passion, a vocation to which one feels deeply committed. In a similar way, many people use the term “calling” in connection with vocational Christian work. For instance, members of the ...read more
