"How can I pick the right job?" This question is of utmost concern for many young people. But according to William Boekestein, pastor of Emmanuel Fellowship Church, you don't need to choose a job that's "perfect for you." But you must be faithful and productive in ways that honor God in your work life. 

Your choices matter. You have real agency, real responsibility to choose wisely. – William Boekestein

Today, Jonathan and James sit down with Bill to discuss his insightful new book, Finding My Vocation: A Guide for Young People Seeking a Calling, and the everyday challenges young people face, including apathy, ambivalence, anxiety, and ambition. How can Scripture guide us in understanding God's sovereignty and our responsibility to make wise decisions about our future?

God does the calling and the appointing. He has a plan that is good for his children. – William Boekestein

This episode offers valuable advice for anyone – young and old alike – grappling with questions of vocation and purpose.

Congratulations to Kyle A. from Clarksville, IN who was selected to receive a copy of Finding My Vocation: A Guide for Young People Seeking a Calling," thanks to the generosity of Reformed Free Publishing!
