Abstract

Through exploring literature on spiritual practice and narrative practice, this article lifts up the discovery that, to the contrary, telling one's story of call is challenging, difficult, and often tied to multiple stories. Through the narrative persons can explor their stories of their call and deepen their call through sharing.
