Who Was Called in Scripture?

What does being created in His image mean for us? 

As we discussed in the previous video, “calling is a charge from God, firstly to Himself and secondly to His mission shared by the church and accomplished through specific gifting in individuals. In this video we will look at those called in Scripture and the principles we can draw from their lives and calling. These principles of calling will shape us and our learning in this course.  

What similarities are in the stories of Abraham, Moses, and Paul in relation to calling?

Have you experienced in any of these components of calling?

You may not be called for the same purpose in God’s mission as Abraham, Moses, Paul, or your pastor. But God has called you to participate in God’s mission in some way and he will find a way to communicate this to you. Maybe this communication is clear, observable, and direct. Maybe it is more subtle, foundational, or nuanced. Either way, God has crowned you with honour by making you in His Image and he longs to share His mission and rule with you.

Where do you see God sharing his rule with you in creation?

Consider the following question:

How has God met you? How has he communicated, connected, confirmed, or given observable evidence of your call?
