About

Welcome to The High Calling on Patheos, a selection of many resources from TheHighCalling.org founded on the belief that God cares about our daily work. On our site, you’ll discover a broad range of articles, interviews, devotionals, and inspirational stories—all specifically created to help you find God in your work, family, and the broader culture.

Honoring God in our daily work is much more than mere evangelism. Our work itself should be a testimony to our creator. That is why we encourage each other to remember the high calling of our daily work.

The High Calling on Patheos and our full site TheHighCalling.org are safe places to ask difficult questions about work, leadership, culture, family, and faith. Our community of Christ followers shares differing opinions about matters of faith and doubt.  We believe in the power of open dialog, and aim to be a safe place to raise difficult issues. We simply ask that each person be respectful of others, rooted and grounded in love.

We invite you to…

Our Mission 

TheHighCalling.org and The High Calling on Patheos are programs of the Foundations for Laity Renewal. We share stories and devotions that inspire people to see connections between work, life, and God. Our motto is “Every day conversations about work, life, and God.” We accomplish our mission when we:

  • Provide free faith-and-work content for personal and small group study, for sermon outlines, and for daily reflection
  • Utilize trained editors who read, comment on, promote, and link to material when it represents our mission.
  • Promote this collection of encouraging and helpful resources.
  • Demonstrate outrageous hospitality through online presence.
  • Offer access to a diverse, worldwide community seeking purpose for life and work
