I think if there was much of a career that I could make out of it, I would go back to school and study History, Philosophy, and Sociology. These things interest me greatly. It is good to remember that one is really a part of the ongoing story of humanity. Makes since that I would feel better if I look at myself as part of this. But maybe I should think of teaching. Never though I would want to do it but maybe I should not close myself off from it. Teaching is almost all I could do with a masters in philosophy or history. Lately I have forgotten how much I love thinking about these things. So, thank God that Carrie (the true rocker she is) convinced me to read this book called “A New Kind of Christian.” It has reminded me of these interest I posses. It asserts (of in what little I have read of it so far) that our society is in a transitional period from a modern world to a postmodern world, and it discusses the church and the challenge of members of the church during this period. It raises many interesting questions and ideas.
If I am to look for things I am interested in for a vocation and a way to serve God, maybe I should start now to study as much as I can on History and Philosophy. I don’t know where God wants me to be in the future, but I hope to find the next step and this might be it. I hope I don’t sound too pretentious, but when a short discussion about global economics at work is the highlight of my day… maybe I should pay attention to that. Or maybe it is just another possible decision on the long list of things I have considered. I do know that what ever comes or goes, Jesus is my rock and I want to serve and love him with my life. I just hope and prey that when he really does lead me that I recognize his lead and follow him.
