Praise for Callings
Over 100,000 copies of Callings sold. Here's what people are saying.
Gregg Levoy has written about the nature of guidance with a ringing clarity. Callings is a spiritual seduction that gives form to a universal mystery. I’d recommend it to anyone who is seeking to hold the divine hand through a transition in their lives.

Stunning! Wonderful! Levoy writes like a poet. His material is both spiritual and practical. I don’t know another book that deals with callings in quite the same way.
Larry Dossey
author of Healing Words, Prayer is Good Medicine, and Toxic Prayer
Gregg Levoy offers a discerning eye for peering into one’s life to translate the recurring symptoms of refusing the inner voices, to gather the courage to answer what calls. He does this with good writing, humor, and a strong clarion voice.
