Summary

How do you know what your calling is? Missy Wallace, Vice President and Executive Director of Faith and Work at Redeemer City to City, shares about how we should view work in light of our relationship with God. This conversation spans topics from Missy's personal story of a child with illness to how to know we're in God's will. Missy has a robust theology of what it means to be called by God - not always in our jobs, but always in our lives in Him.

0:06.9	Hi, this is John Stone Tree, president of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview and host of the

0:24.3	an esteemed group of speakers, including Dr. Kathy Cook and Dr. Matthews. Leath. And we'll be joined by
0:29.8	Jeremiah Johnston. All of us will be sharing powerful insights on how to live as if we were created
