Description
The author of
Make Me Like Jesus shares a personal and thought-provoking inquiry into the practical mechanics of knowing God's will in our lives.
One of the greatest mysteries of the Christian faith is how we can understand the Will of God. The difficulty is underscored by Scripture's repeated use of the word "unknowable" in connection with "the Almighty". How can we possibly grasp that which is unknowable?
Yet God commands us to know him. He also commands us to search diligently to find wisdom. We are therefore called upon to make the attempt to understand something we will never be capable of knowing. In Will of God, Michael Phillips discusses how we can best approach this challenge with gusto as well as humility.
