He described the “good citizen” as a person who accepts Jesus’s commission and the “prime citizen” as “someone who accepts this commission with enthusiasm (pg 110). From this description, it is obvious that enthusiasm is really what separate the “prime citizen” from the “good citizen”. Plantinga continued in his comparison of the two citizens by…

importance of each of these vocations and how they intermix with each other. In looking at each of these, it is important to note that one vocation does not carry more power than another. Veith explains how God works through us in each of the vocations of worker, family member, citizen, and church member to love and serve our neighbor. In chapter 5, Veith explains even though Christians and non-Christians work next to each other in the same job, the doctrine of vocations helps Christians to…

Throughout the fourth unit, we discussed ethics. We started out by stating that we are presented with five different doors (reality, knowing, God, humanity, and ethics). Whichever one you enter in skews the view of the others. For our generation, we typically enter through the door of ethics. I can personally see this in today’s world. As a generation, we are very concerned with what is ethically right. This can be seen with our own humankind as well as animals. Whenever I get on Facebook…

Until, I found my vocation by stumbling upon an article that encouraged participation in a robotics club. My vocation in robotics was found while competing in robotic tournaments and exploring career pathways in that field. At first, robotics was just something fun for a Saturday afternoon, but gradually…

you are, and what you are in social life. In Parker Palmer’s work, he discusses the importance of vocation. Palmer is a speaker, world-renowned writer, and activist who focuses on issues in education, community, religiosity, leadership, and social change. He invokes the spirit, words, and challenges of political leaders. In detail, Palmer argues that “the clues to decode our lives selfhood and vocation may be hard” (Palmer 15).

There are two equally important vocations for women: virginity and marriage. Both, if lived properly, can be a pathway leading to the Kingdom of God and true holiness. Whether a woman follows the vocation of marriage or virginity, she is first and foremost a mother. While it may sound odd to say that a woman who chooses a life of virginity for herself is a mother,…
