You prayed about the decision. You felt peace. It made sense. So why did it go so wrong?
Most Christians want to follow God’s will. They want to make the right choices. They want to believe they are hearing His voice clearly.
But when life puts a real decision in front of you, things can get confusing fast.
A relationship feels right.
A job opportunity looks like an answer to prayer.
A purchase seems responsible.
A move appears to open the door you have been waiting for.
Everything lines up. Everyone says it makes sense. You even feel peace.
So you move forward.
Then later, when the decision begins to unravel, you wonder what happened. Did God lead you there? Did you miss something? Is God playing games with me? Why doesn’t He bless me? I’ve given my life to Him, so why is this happening? Why are You doing this to me?
What’s going on?
The Formula is a practical and personal guide for Christians who want to hear God’s voice more clearly before making the choices that shape their lives.
Through Scripture, personal testimony, and honest reflection, Ryan Foresman walks readers through a biblical framework for recognizing the influences behind every decision. This book will help you slow down, examine what is really guiding you, and learn how to seek God’s direction with greater clarity, confidence, and peace.
Whether you are facing decisions about relationships, marriage, career, money, ministry, family, or your next step in life, The Formula will help you recognize the difference between what feels right, what seems right, and what God is actually saying.
You do not have to keep repeating the same painful patterns.
You do not have to make decisions alone.
God is speaking.
The question is whether you have learned how to listen.
