Debra Farrington presents a rather complete compendium of a variety of discernment tools in an easy reading, inspiring and thought-provoking manner. Whether you are hoping to find a path toward a specific goal or simply looking at how God is working in your life, this is a very helpful and enjoyable book.
Rated by buyers -
Debra Farrington's book offers sage, practical, insightful direction to those seeking to know more about discernment and how to practice this art. The language is accessible--in my experience, people from high school students to octogenarians engage the material and actively learn from it. The book is a valuable resource for anyone teaching courses on Christian spirituality. The author mulches the text with scripture, stories from the tradition, anecdotes from personal history and other sources. Consequently, the reader is artfully drawn into an ongoing conversation about the practice of discernment, and emerges from the conversation with tools, hope and common sense.
While keeping us mindful of the infinite mystery of God, Farrington reminds us that we have been given capacities to respond to God's desires for us as persons, community, nation, world.
