Vocation as Calling Joseph D. Martin Professor Randall Christie Foundations of Learning 01 September 2015

Vocation Defined:  Vocation comes from the Latin “vocare”, which means “to call" (Dayringer).  Vocation is a basic theological concept rooted in a “call and response” understanding of God’s relationship with humankind (McKinney & Drovdahl).  Essentially, it is the way we engage the world in response to the call of God (Smith).

Identify your vocation (Smith)

My Vocation: Religious Leadership A variety of roles:  Pastoral Ministry  Church or Non-profit Administration  Missionary Activity  Humanitarian Assistance

My mission is to partner with parents and churches to disciple children worldwide in the Gospel. Personal Picture. India 2014.

The Confirmation of my Vocation  Through the Spirit  Through authorities and others who recognize my gifts and passions.  Through my personality and values  Through what I enjoy  Through life experiences

Whether they are in Bethlehem… Personal Pictures. Bethlehem, Palestinian Territories 2014.

Or in Dallas… Personal Pictures. Dallas, TX 2015.

…children need JESUS! Personal Picture. India 2014.

Do not limit your vocation to the definitions of man. Submit it to God and enjoy the journey by faith!
