  Some people are lucky enough to get paid to do what they love. But many are not. 
   
   
   
  What if your vocation doesn't align with your passion? In You Have a Calling, award-winning author Karen Swallow Prior has encouraging news: If we pursue the good, true, and beautiful in all our work, we will find our greatest fulfillment. 
   
   
   
  In an age when passion and calling are often confused, Prior helps listeners understand that passions come from within, while our calling, or vocation, comes from without and is about being called by others to serve. That crucial distinction can help us understand how God can use both our passions and our work, even if for different purposes. 
   
   
   
  This book will appeal to everyone who wants to know that their daily work, ordinary though it may be, can fulfill a higher calling to God. Listeners will emerge with a renewed sense of purpose, knowing they are created for virtue in all they do because they are created in the image of God.

  Interpreting Your World - Five...

  Whether we interpret Scripture or culture, it matters what we do, not just what we think or feel. How do we live with our interpretation, and how do we live it out? This book helps us understand how culture forms us as political actors, moves us aesthetically, shapes the rhythms of our lives, and connects (or disconnects) us from God and neighbors we are called to love. The goal is to be equipped to engage culture with greater fluency and fidelity in response to the triune God. 
   
   
   
  This short, accessible introduction to the conversation between theology and culture offers a patient, thoughtful, and theologically attuned approach to cultural discernment. It helps us grow our interpretive skill by training our intuition and giving us a slower, more deliberate approach that accounts for as much of the complexity of culture as possible. The book explores five dimensions of culture—meaning, power, morality, religion, and aesthetic—and shows how each needs the others and all need theology. Each chapter includes distinctive practices for spiritual formation and practical application. Foreword by Kevin J. Vanhoozer.
