More than a Job: Vocation and our Relationship with Work
Abbie Engelstad, MDiv
Spiritual Care
Recorded: May 28, 2020 at 01:30 pm EST
Audience: Front line caregivers Content: Personal Growth Many front line caregivers in health care describe their jobs as "callings" or "vocations", or say that what they do is "more than a job". This class explores the unique challenges and opportunities of relating to one's work in this way. How do we continue relate to our work over years and decades? What happens when our "Calling" disappoints us or lets us down? How do we stay connected to our sense of purpose?
