What About Decision Making and God’s Will Concerning Marriage?
1 Cor 10:27, 1 Cor 7:39, choice, decision-making, Desire, Freedom, Gary Friesen, God’s Will, Marriage, Occupation, widow, wisdom
Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are answering a question about finding God’s will–especially for a marriage partner, but also in other decisions. Is there a formula for this? How can we know that we’ve arrived at the point where God wants us? Or maybe it’s not a point but a matter of freedom–making a wise choice out of many choices that God would be honored by. Bob and Ken have an interesting discussion for you concerning this matter. Please listen!

Welcome to Grace in Focus radio. Bob and Shawn are answering questions from our listeners. Today, they will be discussing an issue related to free will.
