Discover the surprising, rejuvenating power of personal callings on congregational life. For many, once awakened to God's presence in their daily vocations (e.g., grandparent, neighbor, accountant, etc.), and to the limits of their own resources, the gathered life of the congregation takes on a new significance. In this workshop we will explore the biblical and theological rationale for recognizing and honoring the congregation as both a gathered and scattered reality. Specific topics include the work of the Holy Spirit in our vocations, radical evangelism—getting to the root of proclaiming the Gospel, and the biblical basis for vocation from Paul's letters.
