Description
It takes a true calling to make faith a way of life. The Calling is a four-hour documentary series that follows seven Muslims, Catholics, Evangelical Christians, and Jews on a dramatic journey as they train to become professional clergy. Embarking on life paths that demand tremendous personal sacrifice and commitment, these seminarians must uphold timeless truths in an era that values quick fixes and hot trends, and face a public that challenges the very relevance of their mission. A new look at an old job, The Calling takes viewers into the unknown world of seminaries to tell entertaining and compelling personal stories of how faith is lived in today.

The other side of religion
Too often these days we hear stories that demonize those whose faiths differ from our own. FINALLY, a film that shows our commonality. Our stories interconnect - it's time we discover and appreciate the ways that our stories weave together. Thank you so much for this film! I can't wait to see it on PBS in a couple weeks! Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is a gift!
A blessing
I have been in the process of discernment to holy orders for about a year and half now and this was a suggested to me to watch. I found comfort in knowing that there are others who want to serve and care for God's people just as much as I and still live in the real world and I hope this goes a long way to highlight our similarities and not our differences. I found a kinship with each participant. Thank you all for sharing your lives and faith with us.
OOOH!
this preview is really compelling, i cant wait for the film!
