Knowing God's Will: Finding Guidance for Personal Decisions

How can we discover God's will for the complicated decisions of time, money, relationships, education and career? How do we know which is best among a variety of "good" options? In this updated and substantially expanded edition, M. Blaine Smith shows how God unfolds his plan for our lives — through the Bible, prayer, reason, abilities, circumstances, desire and the counsel of others. He packs each chapter with stories which illustrate how he and other Christians have learned to make decisions that please God.

In this revised and expanded edition, M. Blaine Smith provides down-to-earth counsel on making the tough choices of life.
