A Compact Guide to Discovering God's Will

All people face a major issue at some point in their lives, whether it be career selection, choice of college, or who to marry. How does one make these decisions with wisdom and confidence?

A Compact Guide to Discovering God's Will is designed to help readers listen to God and make choices that honor him. Author Gordon Jackson introduces "The Big Five"-scripture, prayer, advice of mature Christians, consideration of circumstances, a sense of inner peace-and demonstrates why they are essential in the decision-making process. Also includes an alphabetical index for quickly finding topics of interest.

Gordon S. Jackson is the associate dean for academic affairs at Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington, and has taught journalism there since 1983. Gordon grew up in South Africa, where he worked as a journalist for a news magazine. He received his undergraduate education in South Africa before obtaining a master's in communication at Wheaton College and a doctorate in mass communication at Indiana University. An author of four books, Gordon's love of quotes inspired him to write Quotes for the Journey, Wisdom for the Way (NavPress).
