Do you long to know your unique purpose? Do you feel you have a calling but wonder how to fulfill it?

As we pursue a sense of purpose and scramble to be the ones chosen for internships, graduate schools, marriages, careers, or some special honor, we often tie our identity to people, places, and clear plans that leave us frustrated and unfulfilled. We feel like were missing the life were supposed to live and we somehow veered off course. We ask questions like, Is this Gods plan for me? How do I know? What is His plan, anyway? What if Scripture not only answered these questions but also taught us an entirely new way of living? Instead of waiting for the perfect person, place, or plan, what if we lived, above all else, as chosen for Christ?

Chosen for Christ invites you to step into the life youve been missing. You were chosen for a Person, not a plan. Now its time to live out your calling to:

  • worship Jesus
  • live as His treasured possession
  • belong to a new household
  • become like Jesus
  • display Gods power
  • complete the good works He designed for you
  • live differently from the rest of the world
  • In a world fixated on personal purpose and impact, Chosen for Christ presents a new way to think about calling. Each chapter includes discussion questions that will help women embrace their identity as chosen ones and step into a new way of living each new day.

    Chosen for Christ completes Heather Hollemans vivid verbs trilogy, which also includes Seated with Christ and Guarded by Christ. It works wonderfully as a stand-alone book or as a powerful companion to her previous works. It also provides an expansion of ideas that appear briefly in Hollemans devotional Included in Christ.

    WHEN WILL I FEEL CHOSEN?

    Whos going to want me? Whoevers going to want me? Nobody will.

    GRACE IN NICHOLAS EVANSS THE HORSE WHISPERER

    I roam around this snowy Pennsylvania neighborhood as the wind at my face feels like tiny teeth biting my cheeks. My teenage daughters will soon arrive home from school, and Ill welcome them with snacks of robust cheese, fresh bread, and dark chocolate while I prepare the lasagna, just like my friendthe neighborhood Italian Mamataught me back in the days of our Italian cooking lessons. But first, I walk the streets Ive now walked for ten years: past the glossy shrubs where Ill find sparrows nests with speckled eggs in the spring, past the parking lot where I once led the neighborhood children in jump rope games, and back to the oak tree that one autumn provided enough acorns to make acorn flour for hearty bread. In a few months, the weeping cherry outside the bedroom window will bloom like pink fireworks. Then, Ill search the garden for yellow daffodils and the first signs of green leaves on the raspberry canes. This is the life God gave me. This is the life He chose for me.

    But winter wont leave yet. And it feels like a bitter winter in my heart, too. Im walking to calm a brewing storm inside of painful emotions that ruin the beauty of a winter walk and embarrass me with their immaturity: Once again I feel overlooked, ignored, and rejected because of an array of infractions like unavailable friends who socialize without me or how other women broadcast their writing and speaking success on social media as if to personally hurt my feelings. Its terrible. If someone else receives an honor at Penn State, I wonder why I wasnt picked. If someone else gains adoration and influence on social media, I wonder if Ive squandered my time and should work harder at promoting myself so everyone will choose me to quote and to headline as their keynote speaker.
