AB - In this paper, we discuss the meaning of work, the relationship between
occupation and calling, and the purpose of work that are consistent with Christian
understanding. Everyone has his or her own view on the world of work.
Understanding this view within each counselee and biblical point of view of work
are the cornerstone of career counseling. Our primary calling is to a relationship
with God through faith in Jesus Christ. Furthermore, God calls each of us not only
to a self-actualization, but also to a life of stewardship. The Bible teaches that
everything we have are gifts God has entrusted to us to manage and use wisely for
the good of his kingdom. This paper briefly summarized a theoretical foundation
for vocational decision making and practical skills for the career counseling
process. Theories of occupational choice emphasis on assessing the interests,
abilities, and character of the worker. Trait and factor theory and career
development theory have been introduced. It is one thing to acknowledge the
theory and skill for career decision making and another to discern what God
wants us to do with our life and gift. Making our career decision is a partnership
effort between human being and God. God is ready and willing to do his part to
guide you into the work.
