À propos de ce contenu audio

 What does it mean to have a calling in a climate-changed world? In this episode, Jessica David is joined by Alison Cornish and Allen Ewing-Merrill from The BTS Center team to explore the idea of “calling.” How do we know what our deepest purpose is, especially when the world is shifting beneath our feet? Through personal stories, reflections on chaplaincy, congregational life, and ecological crisis, this conversation models how calling is not just a destination—it’s an ongoing dialogue between joy and need, self and world, spirit and action. “My calling is to be an agent of God's love, healing, justice, and peace in the world.” — Allen Ewing-Merrill “My specific calling really came when I heard the earth calling directly.” — Alison Cornish ✨ Highlights from the Episode
  • Alison and Allen reflect on their personal callings—from a childhood love of carpentry to a life of teaching and pastoring
  • The BTS Center’s unique framing of vocational discernment: spiritual leadership for a climate-changed world
