Understanding the Concept of Calling and Assignment
Calling is the connection between identity and assignment, representing the 'why' in one's life, while assignment is primarily related to what one gets paid for, often tied to a job or a hobby. Identity represents the 'who,' while calling represents the 'why,' and assignment represents the 'what.' People can have an assignment even in retirement, although it may not be tied to monetary compensation. It's important not to confuse calling with specific job-related language, but to understand calling as the 'why' in one's life.
