The Fund for Theological Education (FTE) annually invites our nation 's premiere preachers to address a group of young adults who are considering a vocation in pastoral ministry. As part of the Excellence in Ministry Conference, these preachers have eloquently proclaimed God 's Word, especially in its relationship to vocational discernment. To honor outgoing president Dr. James Waits for his remarkable service as president of the FTE, these preachers have collected seven superb sermons. These sermons on vocation offer an important resource for high-school and college students making vocational decisions, for older adults considering vocational changes, and for all who teach and mentor in the area of vocational discernment and who help others sort out a commitment to professional ministry. The preachers are highly recognizable and respected individuals who serve as trusted and wise guides for discerning a ministry vocation, including Fred Craddock, Walter Brueggemann, Tom Long, Barbara Brown Taylor, Brad Braxton, and Jeremiah Wright. Pastors will find in these sermons a ready resource, a graduate gift, and a likely handout for anyone considering a ministry vocation.
