Story Behind the Book

Most Christians have been taught how to find Gods will, yet many are still unsure whether theyve found it. God does guide His people, but the question is, How does He guide? After putting out a fleece to decide which college to attend, Garry Friesen began pondering why it was so hard to find Gods will when he had so sincerely sought it. Was he the only one who did not have 100 percent clarity for every decision? Then a new possibility struckperhaps his understanding of the nature of Gods will was biblically deficient. Maybe there was a better way to understand HOW God guides.
