Direction: A Biblical Perspective on Being Called and Sent by God

Why is God’s call a mystery to so many people? Does God call only pastors and missionaries? Or does everyone who calls himself or herself a follower of Christ need to discern what God has called them to? What if the focus is not only about calling but also about being sent? This book offers insight on the topics of both calling and sending, using biblical texts to explore how God led His people in the Old and New Testaments. Relevant questions are explored, engaging readers in practical application of Scripture to their current situation. Whether in ministry, missions, or lay church leadership or in a secular vocation, God’s Word provides principles, guidance, and direction on personal decisions.
