The Guinness family is famous for beer. In Great Britain, I’m told, that’s the only kind to drink.
However, that family also produced one of the greatest Christians alive today, at least that’s my opinion. Dr. Os Guinness is a member of that family. As a Christian speaker, author, apologist, debater, and spokesman for Christianity, I don’t think there are too many men better than he in that capacity.
I bought his book “The Call,” a while back, and am just now starting to read it. The blurb on the back says, “Os Guinness invites you to explore the ultimate answer to identity, meaning, and purpose. ‘The Call’ speaks to the longing in every human heart and answers – You were created with a purpose.’”
On page 30 he says, “(Calling) is almost a synonym for salvation. In this context, calling is overwhelmingly God’s calling people to himself as followers of Christ.”
If that’s any indication, this should be a great book.
