Customer Reviews

For thinking Christians

I've been asked by discouraged people why an "open door" turned out to be disastrous, or what to do when there's no clear answer on what to do. Cheri Cowell takes those questions and invites the reader to discover what Scripture says about finding direction. It's not a typical book, but one for thinking Christians that understand that faith isn't always easy, but trusting and discerning God's will is an ongoing venture. Highly recommended.

Priceless!

I just want you to know how much I appreciated reading your book. It's worth much more than $15.00. As those commercials say "priceless." It was just what I needed at this time in my life.

Clear Direction

I needed this book! As one who is constantly second-guessing myself as to God's good, pleasing, and perfect will, I found direction within its pages. Instead of simply telling me what to do, Cheri Cowell leads me in the steps to drawing closer to God and knowing Him more intimately--which then allow me to hear His voice. The chapter on "Obstacles to Hearing from God" was especially helpful by pointing out the stumbling blocks in my own life that prevent me from discerning His will. I look forward seeing results as I continue to apply the prinicples within this book!

Helpful Book

This was a very interesting book on how have discernment in making decisions for your life. It was different than most books on God's will and the process the author reveals is very thought provoking and it made a lot of sense to me. I have some decision coming up and while I'm not ready to make those decisions yet, this book is helping me with the process. I'm going to keep this one in my library so I can refresh memory as more important life choices come my way! I highly recommend it.

Direction, what a perfect title

"This is one of, if not, the best inspirational book I have ever read, it puts into perspective, how God intends for us to communine with Him. How He desires for us to return to the creatures He created us to be, before the fall of Adam and Eve. I have had the influence of the Nazarene Doctrine, in my life since birth, and never have I heard the areas covered in this book, described so easy to understand. If you read this and apply any of it to your own life, you will certainly become closer to being one with Him." Jon Parsons, Lake Anna, VA
