Most of us handle life's daily decisions without a second thought. Unfortunately, decision-making doesn't stop there. Regularly, we're faced with larger decisions that confront and confuse us---crucial choices which, once we make them, turn around and make us. It all starts with questions about college and career and marriage, and continues through life with questions about job changes and how many kids and whether or not to go through with the surgery. Sure, Christians know---or are supposed to know---good from evil. But how are we to decide among one or more nonsinful options? Can we really hope to discover God's perfect will and avoid going down less-than-perfect paths? Or does it even matter in the long run? Haddon Robinson claims no supernatural wisdom when it comes to decision-making as he has struggled with tough choices too. But through years of spiritual leadership, by study and experience, he has learned several biblical principles about decision-making that hold true no matter how difficult the issue. Taking his usual clear-eyed, not-a-word-wasted approach, he shares these guidelines in Decision-Making by the Book. |
