• 1. The book begins with "The Human Experience of Being Called," In other words, what does it mean or feel like to "be called" to "any" course or action. There is so much to pick from.
• 2. Then the author moves on to, what does it mean to "be called" to follow a specific religion or to a specific form of religious values.
• 3. Then we advance to what does it mean to be called to be a Christian. How do I know I am called to be a Christian? And how do I stay on the path?
• 4. Finally we conclude with, what does it mean to be called and to grow as a monk, nun, sister, or priest?

Books by VocationsPlacement Founder Natalie Smith

This book is 176 pages on how to live like a monk or nun at home in the sense of how to make everything you do a prayer and service to God. The book includes, very detailed information on the dynamics and value of making everything prayer. It includes: how to make reading a prayer, conflict resolution a prayer, child rearing a prayer, how to shop prayerfully, and how to structure your day in order to stay in a constant loving state of receptivity to God's grace.

This book is 110 pages of poetry that wonderfully and artfully expresses almost every dynamic of what it means to be human. Is the flesh really that bad? After all, God gave us our bodies as the only vessel we have to get home to Him. We say, "The Flesh is The Hinge of Salvation." The book starts off with a lively introduction to the seven deadly sins and then on to the mysticism of prayerfulness. Then finally the book swings back in forth with poetry that embraces and gives meaning to everything that could happen to us as humans. In the book you will be intrigued by the many different characters applying to God's love from saints to murderers and prostitutes and everything in between.
