Knowing God’s Will for My Life, Part 2

July 10, 2018

Do you ever hear people say, “God told me to do that,” and think, did He really “tell” you? You hear others claim they know God’s will for their life, but how do you really know what God wants?

We can look in Scripture and see, generally, what God wants for His followers, but what does He want for each of us individually? Maybe there’s a decision you’re grappling with now—who to marry, which college to attend, or a major career or lifestyle choice. In this message, Pete Briscoe gives clear guidance on how to hear the Holy Spirit and discover God’s best life for you.

Is there a person in your life who you just don’t get along with? Worse yet, has someone hurt you so deeply that, if you were totally honest, you would say you hate them?

And if you’re open to this alternative way, it will radically transform how you relate to difficult people in your life.
