Unrepeatable: Cultivating the Unique Calling of Every Person
About this ebook
“This spiritually grounded, easy-to-read treatise is a solid piece of research, and yet is still packed throughout with supporting anecdotes that the reader will recognize and appreciate. Eminently practicable, Unrepeatable is for every Christian, especially the teacher, counselor, or spiritual director, who is truly serious about sifting through the cultural morass to find the ‘right’ vocation, rather than just a job.”
—Bishop Robert Barron, Auxiliary Bishop, Archdiocese of Los Angeles
What if we were able to gain profound insight into the unique design, creative drive, and potential destiny of the people in our lives? The bold promise of this book is that we can.
This ability carries an awesome responsibility: We must all be mentors and midwives to the personal vocations of others.
Unrepeatable is about the urgent need for each of us to cultivate the vocations of others and the steps we should take to do it well.
By smartly weaving evocative stories of those who have radically lived out their callings with practical tools for discernment and mentorship, Luke Burgis and Joshua Miller—who have a combined twenty-five years of experience helping people and organizations discover their purpose—turn staid perceptions of vocation on their head.
Unrepeatable will equip you to:
• Renew your church, school, community, or company by empowering every member to discover, embrace, and fully live out their unique calling
• Confidently teach and mentor young people in critical skills of discernment and decision-making
• Know and be known by others in a deeply personal way through a technique that unlocks and awakens the deepest desires of the heart
As we enter into the stories of others’ lives, we enter into the story of God’s love. There is no greater adventure. Unrepeatable invites you to be a part of it.
