I liked this book. I think it is a very intelligent examination of the whole “God’s will” issue in light of the objective examination of Scripture. I believe that the personal will of God for an individual (or for cohesive groups such as congregations and their leaders) is a chimera as a strategy for decision making, and should not be. You Can’t Miss God’s Will If If we heed the counsel of scripture, we won’t miss God’s will. God isn’t hiding his will or trying to trick us into making a bad decision. If we evaluate our decision by scripture, ask for wisdom, and then ask the opinion of others, we are doing what God requires of us.
Decision Making & the Will of God by sland (WorldCat user published ) Permalink Many books have been written about finding the will of God, and unfortunately, some of them aren’t worth the paper on which they are printed. Friesen offers a refreshing alternative. The phrase 'the will of God' is used loosely. The consequence of that looseness to our peace of mind is serious. The author's recognition of this problem led him to write this book, a classic that has helped more than a million grieving persons better understand the meaning of the phrase. It can help you as well. The Will of God () by Leslie Weatherhead5/5(6).
