Resumen del Editor

Spiritual discernment is a key theme in the Scriptures. From the Garden when Adam and Eve turned away from the simplest terms of a relationship with God, to the Garden when John the Apostle wrote the book of Revelation to a distracted people anticipating eternity, discerning God has been the heart of the matter. In modern times, however, we have forgotten the basic premise of practicing a preference for God, out of which we then are invited to live for God. Instead, we have implanted strategic planning, head-to-head battling, and will-of-God knowing in its place. In The Discerning Life, Stephen A. Macchia seeks to upend the one-eyed and limited Christian understandings of spiritual discernment and invite you to reconsider how to prioritize the care of your soul, the grace of your community, and the mission of your life, church, and organizations. When we have a fuller understanding of how spiritual discernment matters to the whole of our lives, we will in turn encourage others to follow likewise and then lean fully into the mission, mandate, and message of the whole counsel of God.

Appendixes that include a discernment process and a forty-day prayer and reflection resource are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Midway through I struggled with author's ideology. I look to the Rev Keith Mannes for truth, who unlike the author's resume, stood up for biblical truths through acting in opposition to the political Red blackened moral record and bent character.
