The Second Calling by Hans S Reinders

The Second Calling by Hans S Reinders

On the edge of a village near Seville, southern Spain, at the end of a dusty road running through fields of sunflowers and olive trees, is a house which is home to a community of people. The residents of the House of Bethany work together, eat together, laugh together and cry together, celebrating the life that God has given them. Every member of the community is unique, yet each has come to the house for a reason E even if they do not yet know what that reason is. The House of Bethany is a place in which people discover their second calling: a purpose so surprising, so far beyond expectation, that it can only be learned from each other. The Second Calling is a novel inspired by the life and work of Jean Vanier (recipient of the Templeton Prize in 2015) and the ministry of LOArche, a worldwide network of communities in which people with and without intellectual disabilities live together.

Hans Reinders is Professor of Ethics and Disability at the Free University of Amsterdam and is internationally known for his work on theology and disability.
