Finding God's Way Forward In Decision Making

BY LON FENDALL, JAN WOOD, AND BRUCE BISHOP

Brief Description:
Group discernment is an essential ingredient of anything that Quakers seek to do together, and a central part of Quaker process. Even the smallest Bible study group or informal gathering makes decisions. That decision making carries with it the potential of strengthening the spiritual depth of each member of the group, and of discovering God's will - but only if the participants understand and abide by the process. "In concise, lucid prose, illustrated with modern day case studies and stories from the bible, they discuss the attitudes, skills, and steps that help us to find God's leadings for us as meeting communities." - Chel Avery
