Über dieses Buch

You may have been told that a meaningful existence requires one great calling, a mission that explains your choices, organizes your ambitions, and gives every effort a clear destination. When no such calling appears, ordinary responsibilities can begin to feel like evidence that you have missed something important. Purpose Without a Grand Calling challenges the belief that significance must arrive as one dramatic revelation. William R. Stanek offers a more realistic way to recognize what gives your effort value now. Meaning may be built through care, dependable effort, creativity, service, stability, curiosity, or the relationships you sustain. You do not need a perfect statement about what you were born to do. You need an honest understanding of what deserves your attention in this season and one useful way to participate in it.
