Think about a challenging relationship in your life. If you have a copy of The Discerning Life, take a look at the list of “one an- other” passages in chapter 2 . Think of a creative way to express love to that person anonymously today.

People earnestly pursuing a discerning life eventually realize that God offers much more than they are used to. We don’t have to be burdened by a scarcity mindset or a just-enough-to-get-by approach.

The discerning life is available to all who are open to receive it. But for many, the choice has already been made: life is more predictable when it’s fulfilled in our own power and strength. This can be true even of Christians who have professed Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

I have gained so much from the wisdom of @BarbaraLPeacock and am humbled and grateful for her words about The Discerning Life.

Where does God show up the most obviously for you? Where is he easiest to notice? Go there often. It’s good for your soul.

The discerning life isn’t always filled with the obvious or easy or readily accessible. Even though I’m convinced of God’s empowering presence in each and every moment of every single day, I’m not always keen to notice. Perhaps you can relate.

There is no more important topic for the church to wrestle with today than to know God, notice him at work in, through, and all around us, and to aid others in embracing and fulfilling the discerning life.

How grateful I am that @fostereveryday was willing to read and share the heart of The Discerning Life—practicing a preference for God in our every day lives.

In Jesus, God dwells in our midst, making himself known and continuously beckoning us to come close and follow him. The discerning life is an intimately communal life for all who know and love and follow Jesus.

Spiritual discernment is more than a how-to manual for making good selections from a list of options. It includes wise decision-making, but it begins with a relationship with God and the ability to notice God when he shows up, whether he reveals himself clearly or mysteriously.

[Steve Macchia @stevemacchia]

I have been touched by the thoughtful work of @KenShigematsu, so his kind words about The Discerning Life are deeply meaningful.

I am humbled and grateful for the generous words of @garyLthomas. I know The Discerning Life is the culmination of so much of what God has called me to live and now to write.
I pray this book is a great resource to you.

[Steve Macchia @stevemacchia]

Spiritual discernment has been pigeon-holed into the exclusive realm of decision-making and seeking to know God’s will methodically and predictably.
But it is so much more. It’s the choice of the bold and courageous to know God intimately.

In soul hospitality, God invites us to abide in him as he chooses to reside in us. Therefore, we are to make the house of our hearts hospitable to him, noticing his presence, and preparing for his arrival continuously, prayerfully, and graciously.
