Von der hinteren Coverseite

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord" (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV).

How can you know what those plans are? Many Christians miss God's will because they look in the wrong place. In the Bible, believers were concerned with doing God's will, not finding God's will. But before you can do God's will, you must know what it is.

Gary Meadors believes the best guidance for decision making already exists in the teaching of Scripture. He shows how to use an objective process based on understanding the Bible as well as a Christian worldview and set of values, rather than subjective methods.

If you struggle with knowing God's will, Decision Making God's Way will provide you with helpful, thought-provoking insights for determining the answers to life's tough questions.

"Meadors' book provides an objective framework for decision making that counters both the uncertainty and subjectivism of our age. Anyone taking the time to read this text will gain a confidence and a freedom in decision making that perhaps they have never known."-Rex M. Rogers, president, Cornerstone University

"Christians frequently struggle to identify what God's will is for them in the decisions of life, large and small. Meadors wisely counsels us to know and obey God's moral commands and discerningly live out biblical values in every situation."-Stephen R. Spencer, Wheaton College

"In a society that is always looking for instant answers, Meadors makes it clear that it takes time in the Bible and in prayer to 'be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what the will of God is' (Romans 12:1-2)."
-Josie Essig, women's Bible study leader, and Don Essig III, chairman of PGA of America Rules Committee
