Back of the book:

Living in God's Will

A Guide to Decision Making


“What does God want me to do?” This study for small groups and individuals encourages people to stop being anxious about God’s will and instead turn to His Word. As participants consider the story of Ruth, they will come to understand that good choices come out of trusting a good God.
Each chapter includes helpful Bible passages, open-ended questions for discussion and thought, and straightforward explanations and applications, all of which work together to build freedom and confidence in the Father’s guidance.
About This Series: Stonecroft Bible Studies encourage people to know God and grow in His love through exploration of His life-transforming Word, the Bible. Each book is designed for both seekers and new believers and includes easy-to-understand explanations and applications of Bible passages, study questions, and a journal for notes and prayers.

My reflections:

This is a fabulous study for any small group or individual.

It’s thought provoking, jam packed with scripture readings and set out so that it is easy to teach and follow. Small group leaders will absolutely love the simple layout, easy to read language and thought inspiring questions and study sections.

There are seven chapters that include topics like: Can we know God’s will, Right Motive- Wrong Decision, Ruth’s Decision, Israel’s Custom, A new Beginning, Ruth’s Request, and The Result of Right Decisions.  
 During the reading portion of the chapter there are questions to ponder and scripture to look up to guide the reader to further delve into God’s word and find truth and meaning. After each chapter there is a section on personal reflection and application and a prayer. Along with the study you can opt to purchase the Abundant Life Bible, this paper back Bible uses the new living translation, with corresponding page numbers to each verse mentioned in the study, this is especially helpful to individuals who have trouble locating verses.

I thoroughly loved the layout of this little study, I especially enjoyed the questions that are peppered throughout the book, it really gave me a clear insight on what the bible had to say on the subject of living in the will of God.

I would have no hesitation to recommend this little gem to anyone looking for a good life changing bible study!

This book was given to me free of charge, for the purpose of reviewing by Harvest house Publishers. My opinions are my own and I was not encouraged to give a positive review.
Thank you Harvest House!
