Thanks to Dan Kempin for alerting me to this song “Do Everything” by Contemporary Christian Music artist Stephen Curtis Chapman. It is about vocation, but it is about the Reformed doctrine of vocation, rather than the Lutheran doctrine of vocation. They overlap, but the Reformed emphasis is that the purpose of vocation is to glorify God, as in this song (lyrics and video after the jump). The Lutheran emphasis is that the purpose of vocation is to love and serve our neighbors. What difference does that make, if any?
