Beschreibungen

"God's got a plan for your life" is an aphorism frequently heard by Christians. But how do you discover that plan? The Spirit Said Go is designed to help believers find God's will. Using Paul's journeys in Acts as examples, Wilson discusses twenty lessons on guidance drawn from these journeys. Using his firsthand experience traveling along these routes in the Eastern Mediterranean, he reads between the lines offering additional insights into Luke's account. He also provides important geographical and archaeological information to illustrate Paul's world among the Jews, Greeks, and Romans. Wilson then illustrates each lesson with autobiographical vignettes drawn from his own spiritual pilgrimage of over forty years as a follower of Jesus. Friends and colleagues also share stories of similar experiences of guidance. Each chapter ends with reflection questions that help the reader integrate the lesson into Christian living. The volume offers an inductive Bible study combined with practical, spiritual insights regarding how God guides his people then and now.
Mark Wilson is the founder and director of the Asia Minor Research Center in Antalya, Turkey. He currently has academic appointments at Stellenbosch University, the University of South Africa, Ridley College, and Regent University. He is the author of

“I highly recommend
<i>The Spirit Said Go</i>. It is a fantastic tool to use when counseling individuals about calling. . . . I hear this question from friends repeatedly: ‘What does God want me to do?’ and I always tell them there’s a good book they can read. The church has been given a great resource for people to use as they struggle to figure out God’s will for their lives.”

<br> “Our congregation used
<i>The Spirit Said Go </i>in an adult Sunday School class comprised of both new believers and lifelong followers of Jesus. This sparked a remarkable and rare sharing of personal stories that challenged and encouraged everyone to listen to the Spirit on their life’s journey. I would highly recommend this book as a resource for both personal and group growth.”

<br> “Mark Wilson combines superb biblical and historical scholarship with intense personal warmth in this highly insightful book on God’s guidance. It not only teaches us about the numerous and (often) surprising ways God guides us as believers but inspires us to
<i>want </i>to be guided by Christ. And all through a fascinating study of Paul’s experience of guidance in Acts. One of the best books I’ve read on this subject!”
<br>
<br> —M. Blaine Smith, author of
<i>Knowing God’s Will: Finding Guidance for Personal Decisions<br><br> </i>
<br>
<br> “Mark Wilson brings fascinating insights into the journeys of the Apostle Paul. Purchasing the book for just those would be worth it. But he combines those insights with interesting and challenging views on how Paul heard from God, illustrating each chapter with stories of how others have heard from God in a similar way. This book will encourage you, challenge you, and ask you to stop and listen to how God may be speaking to you.”
