Hearing God, Following the Spirit: Practicing Discernment in a Pluralistic Age

Summary

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.

Theologian Steven 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. In this timely book, he shows listeners how to cultivate the spiritual discipline of discernment in our misinformed and pluralistic age. By tuning in to the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, 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.
