God Pointing To God

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 27, 2019

Navigating God’s Will Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 17, 2018

God’s will is something we usually discern with our renewed minds, but sometimes God directs us differently (but never contrary to Scripture); sometimes He hints at those plans, but has not been clear about them — yet He reveals them in His time.

Navigating God’s Will (Matthew 1:18-25) 1. Some people think you can find God’s will by opening up a page of the Bible and putting your finger down, “Bible dipping.” So this guy tries this method of finding God’s will for him.
