Episode 172: The Seamless Life Part 2: Vocation and Occupation

In this episode of In All Things, our book club series continues as we explore the next section of Steven Garber’s The Seamless Life. Dean Weaver is joined by a thoughtful panel of guests—Rachel Toone, Nancy Duff, Marcos Ortega, Joe Kim, and Roger Woodworth—to discuss vocation, occupation, and the intersection of the two. How do we understand the work we do in light of God’s calling in our lives? Is there a difference between our job and our vocation? Together, our guests reflect on Garber’s insights, sharing their own experiences of living faithfully in their professions while holding onto a broader vision of calling. From wrestling with fragmentation in our daily lives to embracing the responsibilities that come with knowing and loving the world, this conversation challenges us to think deeply about what it means to integrate faith and work. Whether you’re in ministry, business, education, or any other field, this episode will encourage you to consider how your occupation is part of something much bigger—an invitation to live with coherence, purpose, and love. Tune in for a rich discussion on calling, responsibility, and the beauty of a life well-lived. 📖 Interested in reading along? Get your copy of The Seamless Life here!
