6 Devotionals on Purpose and Calling

Purpose is one of those words that sounds enormous until you need it on a Tuesday. Most callings are not announced; they are noticed slowly, in what you keep returning to.

These six devotionals sit with that quieter version. Three come from writers who spent their lives on the question, and the rest are worth keeping somewhere you will see them.
