As I noted in a recent post, Parker Palmer has some rich thoughts for those asking questions about vocation and calling in his book, Let Your Life Speak. As much as I appreciate Palmer's work, I think the Presbyterian minister, novelist, and memoirist Frederick Buechner helps move the conversation forward.
Parker Palmer on Calling: That Which You Can't Not Do
I was a freshman in college when I first read Parker Palmer's Let Your Life Speak, which is as good a time as any to think about questions of vocation and calling. As the book's leaflet puts it, Palmer's book is aimed at "illuminating a pathway toward vocation for all who seek the true calling of their lives."
