Callings
Overview | Neighborhood | Work | Relationships
“I chose you and put you in the world to bear fruit–fruit that won’t spoil.'" — John 15:16
What is a Calling?
Callings are Jesus’ invitation to follow him into our workplaces, neighborhoods, and relationships as people of peace. Living out hope, renewal and justice with the people and places around us is one part of a Christian’s spiritual formation.
The callings are woven together with the Practices of PEACE and cross cultural gospel community to fill us with the character and mission of Jesus. Together they form a whole, vital life.
