Итог: | The concept of vocation has been invoked recently in the search for significance. Some of authors in question embed significance within the concept of vocation. As a result, their accounts suffer from excessive individualism, devalue ordinary relationships, denigrate ordinary labor, and prove elitist. This article develops Martin Luther’s understanding of vocation to avoid the problems associated with such accounts of vocation; it argues that Luther’s account provides its own answer to the problem of significance in the modern world. This approach takes seriously both the one who calls and the concrete relationships into which he calls us. |
