Discerning God’s Will: A Process Not a Program

You are here for a purpose. Ephesians 2:10 says that those who are in Christ “are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.” God intentionally made you with specific purposes in mind. It is His desire that you “walk in” those works He has prepared for you.

The Will of God as a Way of Life

Does God have a specific will for your life that you can know? Does He prompt you with personal direction by the Holy Spirit? Or does He only reveal His will in a general way?

The Camelot Syndrome

As we observe social, cultural, and moral decay in our country, we need to know how to respond in a way that reflects our trust in the God who is sovereign over all of history and whose kingdom is the only one that will endure.

A Clear Calling

Why do you get up in the morning? What is your reason for being here? If you do not answer these questions about your purpose, the world will define it by default. Arriving at a biblical understanding of purpose is fundamental to the way you live.

What Is My Purpose and Calling?

It is important to realize that, while evangelism is a key part of this calling, edification is the end game. We are not called to make only converts, but disciples—ones who becomes like the Master. Our universal purpose, then, is to love God with our whole life by becoming more like Christ and by making disciples who do the same.

A Transcendent Purpose

God’s purpose for our lives transcends our career and present circumstances. This involves both a universal and a unique purpose.
