An excellent book about seeking, discovering and doing the will of God. There are many passages throughout that I've copied into my notes for further reflection, but this one sums up the book nicely (from page 216):

"There’s never one right answer, and there are times in life when there are no 'good' answers. What matters is the attention and time we give to asking the deeper questions that nurture the growth of God’s life in ours."
