About this title

Synopsis

In Joy in Divine Wisdom Marva J. Dawn introduces readers to different and intriguing ways of discerning reality and making choices. She asks us to look outside ourselves, our own cultures, and our own brands of Christianity to new ways of listening for the voice of God in our lives. As an international speaker and teacher, she has encountered much wisdom both in Christian tradition and in the many places and people she has visited around the world. In showing us these refreshing new insights about discernment, she also gives us a deeper understanding of grace, community, honesty, humility, wholeness, forgiveness, trust, suffering, and faith.
