For many Christians, finding their calling seems like a hidden needle in a haystack and ultimately leads to confusion and discontentment. Life throws us competing voices and much to discern, so how do we find and respond faithfully to God's invitations? And, how do our churches determine what they're called to do? These handouts answer the fundamental issues Christians often experience with calling and will guide your church leaders toward greater joy and peace in their lives.
