520 |a Modern concepts of vocation often refer to some ambiguous understanding of personal occupation or religious life. These interpretations appear to be in tension with the Christian understanding of vocation as the call of God given to a community to a certain way of living. Christian physicians live into this communal vocation when they remain present to the suffering as a sign of God's faithfulness. This vocational practice of medicine is threatened by a distorted understanding of the body that stems from what Max Weber called the "disenchantment" of the world. By bringing an understanding of the medicine that stems from Weber's disenchantment into conversation with the language and beliefs of the church, this essay will seek to explore practices that might serve to re-enchant an understanding of the body and the practice of medicine as a form of Christian vocation.
