Susan Jones's 'Listening For God's Call' seeks to introduce theological reflection on vocation. Jones grounds this reflection in scriptural narratives... This book takes readers on a whistlestop tour through Anglican and Methodist documents and decisions regarding the many forms of public discipleship. Firmly egalitarian about the ministries of the whole people of God, Jones anchors each discussion in the call to be disciples of Christ. -- Erin Clark, Orion Edgar * Church Times *
