    Josh Wood

    Josh Wood is a native Texan who is a fan of God, his wife, his six kids, business, finance, politics, and spreadsheets. He is debating whether or not the self-publishing of one tiny little book allows him to justify adding the title of “author” to his résumé. He is leaning toward “yes.”

      I thoroughly enjoyed reading How to Find God's Will: ... in 3 simple steps. It was a quick read with a very valuable message. It made me stop to think about my daily experiences and interactions. Definitely a book to pass along to a friend when they just need more than you can give. Josh Wood's writing style is refreshing, simple and to the point, yet approachable and honest.

      I was particularly excited to win a review copy of this book. I love self-help books, and knowing God and understanding what his will is for me is difficult, so yay, what a perfect book!First of all, the author uses plain English, real examples, and is down-to-earth. One of my favorite lines in this book is a reminder to “stop speeding down the highway of life.” This book is easy to follow, and the author is personable and shares his own struggles and journey. I appreciate his openness and the fact that he meets readers where they’re at. Also, the book references Bible verses, but again, it does so in a ‘plain English’ sort of way; it’s not like trying to read a Biblical textbook.

      Great little (33-page) book. Loved the sense of humor...felt like Josh is someone I'd like to know. I could totally identify, having presented my share of flannelboard lessons in Vacation Bible School myself. The nice thing about the book is that is it short and gets quickly to the point. No multiple chapters droning on and on, belaboring his points. An example: "Far too often we Christians search for God's will for our finances; but, we never make an effort to get out of debt. We pray regularly for God's will for a spouse; but, we search in places where we'd be embarrassed to pray. We stressfully pray for God's will in a job search; but we aren't diligent or dependable in our current jobs. We pray for God's will for friendships; but, we never make an effort to spend time with anyone new. We pray for God's will for a work life/home life balance; but, we never say "no" to any work opportunity that arises. Churches pray for God's will for a new location, but don't effectively serve the current communities that they inhabit."Nothing groundbreaking there, but who can read it and not be convicted by at least one of these points?Yes, Josh, I think you can now add "author" to your resume. And I don't say that just because you're a fellow Texan. ;-)I received free copy of this eBook through the Library Thing Member Giveaway in exchange for my impartial review.

      for a first time author, I really enjoyed this book, plenty of humor I can really relate to (velvet Zacheaus). Josh had some great advice and very biblical, and with the humor thrown in, to make it a great all around book.

      How to Find God's Will: ...in 3 simple steps by Josh Wood was a quick read. From which I came away with the feeling of spending time talking with a friend after reading it. It is is written in plain and simple language simple enough for anyone to understand. I enjoyed the humor he used to get the point across - "My Will vs. God's Will" . I will read this one again! I would recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their life.I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review, rather it be good or bad.

This whole free will thing is really great and all; but, it sure can be annoying at times. How am I supposed to know for sure what God’s will is for my career? Do I go after job A or job B?
