  What if your vocation doesn't align with your passion? 
   
  Some people are lucky enough to get paid to do what they love. But many are not.  
   
  In You Have a Calling, award-winning author Karen Swallow Prior has encouraging news: If you pursue the good, true, and beautiful in all your work, you will find your greatest fulfillment. In this book, you'll discover 
   
  ● how knowing the crucial difference between passion and calling transforms how you view work; 
  ● how to finding meaning in every role, regardless of your career; and 
  ● how everyday work reflects the image of God through truth, goodness, and beauty. 
   
  In an age when passion and calling are often confused, Prior helps you understand that passions come from within, while your calling, or vocation, comes from without and is about being called by others to serve. That crucial distinction can help you understand how God can use both your 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. You will gain a renewed sense of purpose, knowing you are created for virtue in all you do because you are created in the image of God.

  Becoming the Pastor's Wife - How...

  As a pastor's wife for twenty-five years, Beth Allison Barr has lived with assumptions about what she should do and who she should be. 
   
   
   
  In Becoming the Pastor's Wife, Barr draws on that experience and her expertise as a historian to trace the history of the role of the pastor's wife, showing how it both helped and hurt women in conservative Protestant traditions. While they gained an important leadership role, it came at a deep cost: losing independent church leadership opportunities that existed throughout most of church history and strengthening a gender hierarchy that prioritized male careers. 
   
   
   
  Barr examines the connection between the decline of female ordination and the rise of the role of pastor's wife in the evangelical church, tracing its patterns in the larger history (ancient, medieval, Reformation, and modern) of Christian women's leadership. By expertly blending historical and personal narrative, she equips pastors' wives to better advocate for themselves while helping the church understand the origins of the role as well as the historical reality of ordained women.
