Summary

In the tradition of C.S. Lewis and Oswald Chambers, internationally renowned author and thinker Os Guinness has produced a classic work on life's purpose.

With his usual incisiveness, Guinness goes past your superficial understanding to the very heart of what calling means. Far bigger than you job, deeper than your personal accomplishments, higher that you wildest ideas of self-fulfillment, calling addresses the very essence of your existence. In these messages, Dr. Guinness sets out the principles for all who seek their life's central purpose.

  • How do I discover my calling?
  • What does it have to do with identity and personal growth?
  • Is calling only a spiritual idea or does it cover work, career, and ideas of success?

    Os Guinness says..."calling is not what it is commonly thought to be. It often flies directly in the face of our human inclinations. But no idea short of God's call can ground and fulfill the truest human desire for purpose and fulfillment."

    Not the book itself, but a lecture

    Still very good and captures most of my the book wonderfully. OGs voice is as smooth as butter.

    Calling simple, clarity in challenging the modern view

    Oz is yet again spot on dissecting the most fundamental of all human yearnings, Biblical reference and support, sound logical reasoning, historical relevant perspective and a deep love of language and wisdom makea this book like a stream of cold fresh revigorating water for the soul.
