Henry T. Blackaby is a Southern Baptist pastor and the main author of the book Experiencing God. Blackaby’s goal in writing the book is expressed as such: “I invite you to interact with God throughout the reading of this book so He can reveal to you the ways He wants to apply these principles in your own life, ministry, and church.” There are 7 “steps” that Blackaby proposes for knowing God’s will:
- God is always at work around you.
- God pursues a love relationship with you.
- God invites you to become involved in His work.
- God speaks by the Holy Spirit through: The Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church to reveal this.
- God’s invitation always involves a crisis of faith for you.
- You must make major adjustments to your life to join God’s work.
- You come to know God by your experience as you obey and God works through you.
Please join us starting Sunday, July 3 as we experience God together as a church.
