Typically, people think of a "calling" as the impetus to professional ministry; Robert Furey challenges us to consider that each of us has a calling, unique to our personal strengths, gifts, and even weaknesses. In his definition of a calling, spirituality of some type, service and purpose are key: a calling is not just performing the task at which one is most skilled, but using one's gifts to make the world a better place, somehow. Each of us is here to contribute to the betterment of the whole. I found the book inspiring and well-written, insightful and thought-provoking.

Every person is unique and indispensable.
