The Way of Life: A Theology of Christian VocationThe concept of vocation is often at the heart of religious experience, yet suprisingly few serious theological studies have been written about it.

The concept of vocation is often at the heart of religious experience, yet suprisingly few serious theological studies have been written about it. The Way of Life seeks to remedy this oversight and to outline a sane alternative to the more questionable versions of the idea of vocation found at the popular level. Beginning with the Bible, and drawing on theological sources both Protestant and Catholic, Gary Badcock develops a constructive theology of Christian vocation, rescuing it from both secular and sacred distortions. Badcock argues that Christian vocation is essentially the call to love God and neighbor. Through a consideration of several theologians, including in particular Martin Luther and Hans Urs von Balthasar, Badcock links this theme to another ruling idea of Christian spirituality - discipleship in the way of the cross. Viewed theologically, Christian vocation finally comes to be seen as a sharing in the reconciling mission of Jesus. Vocation should be seen as a way of life - indeed, as the way of life, the way which follows Jesus himself. A Christian's vocation is not, therefore, to be confused with with an occupation. Even though work itself is of great significance, vocation is fundamentally less about what one does than about what one is. For those struggling to discover a proper sense of vocation in a society obsessed with prestige and financial gain, this volume provides a solid, readable, and theologically informed account of what it truly means to be "called of God."Binding Type: Paperback

"Showstopper Suit That Turned Heads All Night!”
Size: Medium, Color: Violet Purple, Size: Medium, Color: Violet Purple
I absolutely love this suit. We bought it specifically to match my son's girlfriend's prom dress, and it could not have been a more perfect choice. After she picked out her gown, I spent the entire Sunday searching for a suit that would complement it, and when I saw this one, I knew it was the one. The colors, the pattern, the style—it all came together perfectly.
When prom day came, my son looked so confident, handsome, and proud. He and his date looked stunning together, like they coordinated their outfits down to the smallest detail. You could tell they were a couple just by the way they complemented each other. He received nonstop compliments, not only at the prom send-off but even later that night when we went to Texas Roadhouse. People were turning their heads and praising the look. It was truly a moment.
This was hands down one of the best purchases I have ever made on Amazon. I do not usually write reviews, but this suit deserves the recognition. It was sleek, bold, well-fitted, and absolutely top tier. If you're considering this suit, do it. It is a total showstopper.

Good value
No give to the fabric so it was a little snug but over all great tux for the price. Had to cut a few loose threads on the inside of the jacket but other than that no issues.

Comfortable & Attractive!
Size: Large, Color: Yellow, Size: Large, Color: Yellow
Husband love all their styles. Soft, flexible and comfortable. He looks amazing in it and received a ton of compliments, even won the best dressed award! He’s 5’10” and roughly 180#. True to its size and breathable. He says his “man area” is even comfortable and not squished like most suits do. Color is true as well.
