Summary: It’s Your Call is a reflective work to help guide and encourage one to discover his or her true calling from God. This is not a book filled with quizzes and questionnaires. It is a book that shares stories of how others have discovered their calling. It is a book about finding one’s journey, being on the right path, hearing and paying attention to God’s voice. It’s Your Call is the type of book that is perfect to start a New Year off with or to begin a process of change in one’s life. 4 out 5 quills

Memorable Quotes: “What you were created to do, the part you are to play, your truest desire will stand the test of time.”

“Your heart will also speak of the glory it possesses through the stories you have loved and the characters you have longed to be.”

“Humility is about owning who you are, your glory – splendor, strength, weightiness, beauty, abundance. Humility does not exaggerate, nor does humility make oneself smaller.”

Author’s Tone & Writing Style: Gary Barkalow writes with a friendly, comradeship-type tone and backs up his statements heavily with scripture. Interestingly enough, he also uses movies as analogies throughout the book. At times, it seemed to bring Gary down to a more familiar level rather than up on the pulpit, but other times the abrupt change to an analogy about a recent movie seemed jarring. 3 out of 5 quills
