Hearing God, Following the Spirit

How Can We Hear God's Voice in a Noisy World?Hundreds of voices compete for our attention every day, both online and in our increasingly diverse communities. For Christians, it can be difficult to hear the voice of God amid all the noise. Some inadvertently give ear to these competing voices--while others are entirely led astray.In this timely book, theologian Steven Félix-Jäger equips readers to cultivate the spiritual discipline of discernment for a misinformed and pluralistic age. Readers will● learn to distinguish God's voice from the competing narratives of secularism, misinformation, and political tribalism;● discover spiritual practices for tuning in to the Holy Spirit who dwells within us;● find a hopeful, clear-eyed path through unanswered questions and life's darker seasons; and● gain a framework for joining Christ's work in a noisy world.Félix-Jäger takes on the many challenges the church faces today, such as post-truth secularism, pluralism, political tribalism, and the anxiety of living with unanswered questions to our deepest concerns. By tuning in to the Holy Spirit and practicing spiritual disciplines, we can hear God and join in Christ's work in our messy world.Ideal for study groups and classrooms, each chapter includes discussion questions, key terms, and reflection exercises.
