Book excerpt: To discern is to hear and understand Gods voice as articulated by the Holy Spirit, resident within us. Discernment is a necessary precondition for faithfulness to Gods leadings. This is as true for groups as it is for individuals, which means it is true for congregations and businesses that want to obey Christ.Group discernment is an essential ingredient of anything that Christs followers seek to do together. Even the smallest Bible study group or informal gathering makes decisions. That decision making carries with it the potential of strengthening the spiritual depth of each member of the groupbut it also makes misunderstanding, division, and even the complete destruction of the group possible.We invite you into an exploration of the ways God wants to enrich, instruct, and guide groups of believers called into common endeavors....As those of us who have experienced the wonder and joy of this process can attest, decisions arrived at by discernment truly witness to the fact that God is God and that faithfulness is an amazing journey.from Practicing Discernment Together
