Description
Summary:Skillfully opening up to the world is an important element of the Reformation: work, professions and vocations must not lose sight of each other. The tendency to allow the working and professional world to become a 'God-free zone' should be seen critically. On the basis of the concept of universal priesthood, individual Christians' responsibility in these everyday settings has a specific spiritual approach: God - life - career. Ultimately it is a matter of holiness in our working day, or 'everyday holiness'. Seeking God in our encounters with His Creation, our environment, our world, is more than a profession: it is a vocation. In our professional actions which produce material or intellectual 'products', God as the Creator is not separate from us, but rather is immanent, making our actions possible. (English)
