A number of people around me are switching jobs. How do I know if I should be doing the same?

Friends of mine are struggling to decide whether they should move for a job. It sounds like a great opportunity for her, but she and her family are happy here. What advice can I give them, and how do I support them?

I'm in a job that I never planned to be doing. I feel I should be thankful to have a job, but I'm not really sure how I feel about it or whether I should do anything about it.

When I mentioned to a friend that I think everyone should find a job they love, he responded that some people just need to make a living. Is this a cop-out?

The Bible cautions us not to think more highly of ourselves than we ought.

Does it matter what kind of company I work for and what kind of values it seems to have?

It can be hard not to know what one ought to do. It feels as if it would be easier if God let us know directly what we ought to do next! But that is not how God usually works.

Isn’t getting a job enough? Do I really need to have a career or a vocation?

I’m not sure what I ought to be doing next. Why does deciding this feel so hard?

To help you decide, ask how this position might allow you to love God and love your neighbor.

Does being overwhelmed by my job mean I’ve mistaken my calling or am doing something wrong?

Too often we confuse God’s calling for our lives with a paid vocation.

I am in a period of huge transition in my life right now. How do I make sure I navigate my decisions and direction-setting well?
