2010 Reading


Just Do Something
A Liberating Approach to Finding God's Will
Or
How to make a decision without dreams, visions, fleeces, impressions, open doors, random Bible verses, casting lot, liver shivers, writing in the sky, etc.
by Kevin DeYoung

"If you are seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, you will be in God's will, so just go out and do something."

"You don't get the sense that the apostle got angelic visits every other day and waited for his dreams to tell him what to do. With few exceptions, Paul planned, strategized, and made his own decisions about the nonmoral matters of his life."

"Study the Scriptures, listen to others, and pray continually- that's the best course of action, not just at the moment of crisis, but as a way of life. And as you engage in these practices, don't forget to make a decision-always with wisdom, always with freedom, and sometimes even with speed."
