Note:"Is the concept of calling universal? God calls all people, yes- but calling is not a monolithic concept. This path-breaking book helps Christians in the United States see how social location shapes assumptions and experiences with vocation, critically examining the cultural priorities of vocation that emphasize certainty, career paths, and personal achievement."-- Provided by publisher.
