God never intends His calling for our lives to be a mystery to solve or a list of things to do. It's an open invitation to know Him intimately. The deeper we know God and dwell in His Word, the more naturally we discern His will. The secret is that there is no secret. This book will not teach you how to look for 'signs'. discover your gifts or hear a 'voice'. Nor will it tell you which career, ministry or marriage partner to choose. Rather, this book will take you on a journey through 24 Bible stories and examine how God calls His people and how people respond (or fail to respond). Drawing from four decades of experience in counselling and walking alongside seminary students in Hong Kong, Dr Philip Yeung uses Scripture powerfully and practically to address common misconceptions, questions and struggles expressed by Christians about discerning God's calling.

He who said "I AM THE LIGHT" embraced the utmost darkness of humanity; He who claimed "I AM THE TRUTH" stood accused; He who announced "I AM THE LIVING WATER" became thirsty; He who proclaimed "I AM THE RESURRECTION" entered death; He who promised "I WILL PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU" was buried in a tomb; And he calls us to leave everything behind and follow him? Dr. Philip Yeung leads us in a moving and radical journey of Jesus during the Holy Week, from the darkest hour at the hands of the betrayer to the brightest dawn at the empty tomb, and examines how unexpected details highlighted by the Gospel authors open our eyes to the unimaginable depth and length of God's love for us.
Hyper-spiritual approaches to finding God's will don't work. It's time to try something new: Give up. Pastor and author Kevin DeYoung counsels Christians to settle down, make choices, and do the hard work of seeing those choices through. Too often, he writes, God's people tinker around with churches, jobs, and relationships, worrying that they haven't found God's perfect will for their lives. Or-even worse-they do absolutely nothing, stuck in a frustrated state of paralyzed indecision, waiting...waiting...waiting for clear, direct, unmistakable direction. But God doesn't need to tell us what to do at each fork in the road. He's already revealed his plan for our lives: to love him with our whole hearts, to obey His Word, and after that, to do what we like. No need for hocus-pocus. No reason to be directionally challenged. Just do something.

According to David Barrett of the World Christian Encyclopedia, there are more than 10,000 distinct religions in the world. Maybe, surprisingly to some, Barrett says there are 34,000 separate Christian groups. Hmmm. That's a lot of faith. That's a lot of religion; most of which finds its basis in human reason and invention. However, there's a faith that's called THE FAITH. It finds its basis and creation in the Lord, and is clearly delineated in His Word, the Bible. He, the Lord not man, set the parameters, the boundaries, and the substance of the faith. Unfortunately, those who claim to be followers of the Lord have tended to wander from the kind of faith the Lord has called His people to follow and reproduce. The author doesn't presume to have special revelation. He doesn't pretend to have access to secrets that are unique to him. He simply places THE FAITH into its historical context while making application to the believer of today. It's time to take a fresh look at the faith and calling the Lord intended. This book is just the beginning, but the author hopes it will be a profitable beginning for all who read it. DONALD DAVIES has been married to his high school sweetheart, Carolyn, for 43 years.
