About the author
G. Campbell Morgan
297 books47 followersReverend Doctor George Campbell Morgan D.D. was a British evangelist, preacher and a leading Bible scholar. A contemporary of Rodney "Gipsy" Smith, Morgan preached his first sermon at age 13. He was the pastor of Westminster Chapel in London from 1904 to 1919, and from 1933 to 1943, pausing briefly between to work at Biola in Los Angeles, which he eventually handed over to Martyn Lloyd Jones.
Morgan was a prolific author, writing over 60 works in his lifetime, not counting the publishing of some of his sermons as booklets and pamphlets. In addition to composing extensive biblical commentaries, and writing on myriad topics related to the Christian life and ministry, his essay entitled "The Purposes of the Incarnation" is included in a famous and historic collection called The Fundamentals—a set of 90 essays edited by the famous R. A. Torrey, who himself was successor to D. L. Moody both as an evangelist and pastor—which is widely considered to be the foundation of the modern Christian Fundamentalist movement.

I must admit that this was a case of read-and-skim as I was using this book (online) to research a paper. But I was able to discover and follow Morgan's well-woven argument.
The book would very helpful to anyone wrestling with the whole matter of God's will. Morgan spends most of his time on the big-picture matter of fulfillment of God's will as obedience to God's word. He does, though, turn to the matter of discerning God's will for individual lives; it is quite good and non-mystical.
As a side-note, I found it interesting that the book begins by criticizing misinformed approaches to the subject of God's will that were common at the time (1901), and I was surprised that these sounded quite contemporary.
