Decision Making and the Will of God by Garry Friesen,J. Robin Maxson Pdf

Does God Have a Perfect Will for Your Life? Does God have a perfect will for each Christian? Can you be absolutely certain of God’s specific will for your life? In this expanded twenty-fifth anniversary edition of his highly acclaimed work, Garry Friesen examines the prevalent view on God’s will today and provides a sound biblical alternative to the traditional teaching of how God guides us. This new edition includes these helpful resources: • Study guide for small groups • Responses to Frequently Asked Questions • Guide to painless Scripture memorization Friesen tackles the very practical issues of choosing a mate, picking a career, and giving in this fresh and liberating approach to decision making and the will of God. Story Behind the Book Most Christians have been taught how to find God’s will, yet many are still unsure whether they’ve found it. God does guide His people, but the question is, “How does He guide?” After “putting out a fleece” to decide which college to attend, Garry Friesen began pondering why it was so hard to find God’s will when he had so sincerely sought it. Was he the only one who did not have 100 percent clarity for every decision? Then a new possibility struck—perhaps his understanding of the nature of God’s will was biblically deficient. Maybe there was a better way to understand HOW God guides.

Free to Be Wise by Kirk Youngblood Pdf

How can I know God's will for my life? Should I expect God to reveal it to me mystically, or has He already revealed His wisdom in Scripture, which enables me to be wise in my decision making? What faulty methods should I avoid in making decisions, and how can I apply biblical wisdom? Far too many have been paralyzed with indecision because they are looking for a mystical inside track to a new revelation from God. In Free to Be Wise: A Guide to Biblical Decision Making, Kirk Youngblood explains how you can avoid the common pitfalls of using a mystical approach to biblical decision making. You will be liberated to follow the wisdom God has already revealed in His Word. Youngblood has thoroughly researched this topic and explains the mysticism versus wisdom paths to learning God's will for your life in a clear and easy-to-understand manner. The Bible gives clear instructions about how we are to live: we are to walk in wisdom and take advantage of every opportunity to accomplish God's will. Free to Be Wise will help you learn how to do so. Pastor Kirk Youngblood deals with the most personal and practical issue that any Christian will ever face knowing and obeying God's will. He incisively exposes wrong approaches balanced by an exposition of the authentic biblical way. This book's breadth and depth ensures that the reader will never need another volume on God's will in order to consistently make God-honoring decisions in life. It deserves the "must read" label.

Deciding to Be Christian by Mark O'Keefe Pdf

"In order truly to be a Christian--in order to authentically, maturely, and fully live the Christian life--we must decide to be Christian, and we must renew that decision each day. There is no other way," Mark O'Keefe, OSB, writes in Deciding to Be Christian: A Daily Commitment. Writing from his experience of Benedictine monastic life, teaching, and ministry, O'Keefe argues that going through the motions of being Catholic is to shirk our responsibilities as disciples of Christ. While it can be easy to succumb to the allure of society's many temptations, real "Christian faith ultimately offers us...a deeper sense of joy in possessing something more important and enduring." In today's world of multiple distractions, you'll find that "Deciding to Be Christian: A Daily Commitment" will help you develop a personal experience of God's presence and invitation, and ultimately a deep sense of joy.

Choosing Is a Choice by Jalissia Tiektion Pdf

Have you ever wondered if God doesn't really care about the ninety-nine sheep that stayed? Do you ever think that getting in trouble will give you recognition and love when you return? Choosing Is a Choice is about Christian teens making choices once they are beginning to emerge from under their parents' influence. This book takes them through a journey, with a youth group or by themselves, as they read stories about how Jill Tiektion makes decisions that bring her closer to God, and how her life was impacted by the numerous bad decisions that others made around her. Teens will find adventure is not only for the ones being rescued from the wrongs they have committed. Life is challenging and exciting without experiencing the bad decisions that others have made. Discover the effects words and lies have on decisions, teens making convictions for themselves, and the need to know what God thinks about them while they discover the truth that every day, their choices are theirs alone.

Demystifying Decision-Making by Aimee Joseph Pdf

Drawing Closer to God One Decision at a Time On an average day, people makes countless decisions: Should I get out of bed or hit the snooze button? What should I have for breakfast? Where should we go for this year's vacation? While some decisions are easy to make, others can leave individuals paralyzed and full of anxiety. As Christians living in an increasingly individualistic society, what's the best strategy for making decisions that honor God while becoming more like him in the process? Writing from her own experience and pointing to biblical examples, Aimee Joseph offers a biblical and theological framework for decision-making. She explains God's design for humans as decision-makers, the biblical model for making choices, common wrong approaches, practical tips, and what to do when you've made a poor decision. With the philosophy that "as we shape our decisions, our decisions shape us," Joseph teaches readers how to worship and draw closer to Christ through their daily decisions. Practical: Equips Christians to make decisions as God's image bearers Applicable: Features study questions and helpful resources, including "The Dashboard of Decisions" and a decision-making flowchart Published in Partnership with the Gospel Coalition (TGC)

The Will of God as a Way of Life by Jerry L. Sittser Pdf

Practical help for understanding and following God's will for your life. "God has a plan for our lives," but what does that mean in practical terms? How do we know God's will for important life decisions, like who to marry, what job to take, what church to join? How can we be free if God has a perfect plan for us? Does suffering mean we are off track? How exactly does God speak? Author Jerry Sittser explores these questions and offers a biblically based approach that is truly liberating. No matter what decisions we've already made, he points out that it is still possible to live out God's perfect will--even if we think we've married the wrong person, chosen the wrong career, or landed in some kind of serious trouble. This new edition includes study questions designed to help individuals or groups who are faced with decisions--large or small.
