Overview

This book details my spiritual conversion and experience of God's call in my life as a Catholic Christian and sociologist. It narrates how my accidental reading of the Bible had led to my spiritual journey with Christ. Thinking that God called me to become a Catholic priest, I abandoned my dream to become a pilot and engineer and entered the Catholic seminary--only to discover that He had other plans for me beyond the priesthood. This short volume illustrates how God can reveal His call through ordinary human events and experiences, requiring Christian discernment, prayer, and generous personal response from those who are called. It also provides a glimpse of what the seminary life would look like to the reader. This volume therefore appeals to those who want to discover God's call in their personal and spiritual lives as Christians.
