Author text to follow
“Here is a very readable guide to one of the themes which runs throughout it – the experience of people who felt they were Called by God.” The Very Rev. Robert Davidson, Emeritus Professor of Old Testament Language and Literature, University of Glasgow, Former Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland
Called by God tells of the life and work of thirty characters in the Bible who were convinced that they had received a divine calling. The text brings out, in a poetic and highly readable way, the personal thoughts and tribulations of the characters as they seek to fulfil God’s command and to follow the path of their vocation. While the text follows the Old Testament and Jewish biblical narratives, it adds dimensions of poetic licence to bring out the characterization of the personalities and their stories in a way that highlights their conviction that God supports them in all their activities.
