Find Your Place in God's Plan

by Jeremiah Gibbs

Overview

A step-by-step guide for hearing and claiming God's calling for your life.

For students, youth and young adult pastors, counselors, chaplains, and campus ministers. The purpose of Find Your Place in God's Mission is to help students find clarity about how God has uniquely gifted them to participate in God's ongoing mission for the sake of the world. This book provides a structure and step-by-step guide for discerning God's calling and corrects some misconceptions.  Gibbs provides guidance and helps organize discernment into three intersecting categories: needs of the world, passions, and tools.

The Christian walk leads us to move ever closer to God and take steps to deepen our calling to be faithful. But the urgency of that pursuit is especially poignant for teens and college students. They often feel pressured, believing that if they don't get this choice right, they may find themselves outside of God's will and be destined for less than God intends. This practical and accessible book will help them find their way and discern their path.
