From Confusion to CLARITY: A 4-Part Framework For Discerning God's Will ("Good" vs. "Should") | Ep. 18

Let's Unpack That with Alex & Grace | Christian Life Coaches, Faith At Work, Soul Care, Kingdom Leaders, God-Centered Professionals, Biblical Career Advice

Just because it's a good thing... doesn't mean you should do it.
Every single day, we're faced with a number of decisions.
For some of us, it can feel daunting just to choose a restaurant to go to, or pick items off a menu, or what outfit to wear to an event...
Let alone higher-stake decisions, like who to date or marry, whether to change jobs, whether to move (especially in a seemingly never-ending sea of information, opinions, and options).
For others of us, our issue is more about overcommitting to things that ALL seem like good opportunities to pursue... leaving little time and energy for our actual values.
Whether big or small, decision-making can sometimes feel like an overwhelming puzzle.
And both of us have faced (and continue to face!) our fair share of difficult decisions and the unnecessary stress that can often accompany them.
But through the crossroads in our own journeys, we've learned some super valuable lessons and tips that we want to share to help you discern God's will - and how he is leading you.
In this episode, we dive into some factors that make decision-making so hard... and walk you through 4 categories of important questions that have helped us a lot in discerning between what's a "good" vs. a "should."
We hope this conversation and framework helps you break free from analysis paralysis... and instead, find God's divine wisdom and guidance from amidst all the noise, in order to step forward with clarity, purpose, and confident faith!
