From our friends at Christian History Institute comes a wonderful new resource: an issue of Christian History Magazine on vocation and calling from Biblical times to our own day:
Did you know that dramatic calls by God in the Bible are actually pretty rare? That the early church refused to baptize actors unless they quit the theater? That many medieval kings wrestled with what it meant to be a Christian and a ruler? And that Luther thought you could be called by God to change diapers? The next issue of Christian History will talk about all this and more–with stories of famous Christians who have tried to remain faithful to their vocations, examples of the historic church helping and sometimes hindering believers in their callings, and a reminder that all work, not just “church work,” is a sacred calling.
Sign up to get this issue by August 7 at https://www.christianhistoryinstitute.org/donation/subscribe/. You can pay whatever you can afford–even if that is nothing at all. Sounds like a deal to me!
