We live in a world where God speaks. Yet, it is also the most distracted, loud, and digitally saturated era in human history; a time in which his voice can feel inaudible, or at least like one of many in a noisy cafeteria. So, the question becomes not just, “will we learn to hear God?”, but “how can we go about it?”
While hearing God’s voice is not an exact science or formula, with humility, patience, discernment, and most of all surrender, Scripture reveals certain patterns, paths, and practices that God tends to use to speak with his people, including:
- Jesus
- Scripture
- the gentle whisper
- prophecy, dreams, and visions
- circumstances, desires, and discernment
- the leading of the Holy Spirit
This full-color companion guide will help you practice and reflect either independently or with your community as you walk through the Course to experience the ever present, clear voice of God. Inside, you’ll find resources like:
- Helpful tips to get the most out of each session of the Course
- Real-life exercises to help put each session into practice
- Prayers to end each session as a community
- Additional resources such as a Recommended Reading and a Dream Step Sheet
