Abstract

At Grace Presbyterian Church, differences of opinion exist regarding how decisions should be made in 'non-moral' areas or areas not specifically addressed in the Bible. Some members take the 'traditional' approach, seeking God's individual will in their lives. Others take the 'way of wisdom', seeking wise decisions in their choices. Blending the two approaches has led to difficulties at Grace. In this paper, the author contends that the 'way of wisdom' best reflects a biblical model of decision-making. He designed this dissertation to explore the impact of a traditional view upon many of the church's members. Data for this study is taken from a review of literature regarding decision making among Christians, from a survey determining who in the church adheres to the traditional view and from information gained from focus groups composed of church members who take that same view.
