For when we realize that the "mundane" activities that consume most of our time are "God's hiding places,"...

Whose plan are you following?
Many Christians may be familiar with the wisdom and advice laid out in Proverbs 3:5-6, where it says: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

"So, what do you really want to do?"
Most people spend more time thinking about how to get what they want rather than determining exactly what they should want during their life journey. Modern dictionaries define vocation as a regular occupation or profession, but its roots are found in Scripture as positively responding to a call from God that leads to a comprehensive Christian life.
This book traces the history of vocation from its scriptural...
