Week 7: Chapter 6 — Forget About His Will for Your Life!

1.Chan's chapter title is intentionally jarring — 'Forget About His Will for Your Life!' What does he actually mean by this? How is his real argument different from saying God's will doesn't matter?

2.He argues that many Christians treat 'finding God's will' as if God were a cosmic planner issuing personalized career plans, and that this misses the point. The Spirit's primary work is not to give us a road map but to transform us into people who embody God's character. How does that reframing change your approach to decision-making and life planning?

3.Chan points out the irony: we spend enormous energy searching for God's specific will for our lives while largely ignoring His clearly revealed will — to love God, love people, pursue holiness, and make disciples. Where do you most neglect the obvious in favor of searching for the mysterious?
