In Secret of Guidance, first published in 1896, Meyer addresses one of the most crucial questions for every religious person: How do you find proper guidance? For if one is to lead a proper life according to God's will, one must have a pretty good idea of what God's will is. Many pray for guidance, and here Meyer attempts to show believers how they may start to discern God's answer to those prayers. He further explains those conditions that may be keeping people from following the guidance that they have been given. Secret of Guidance is a useful guide for any Christian who feels lost on their path and is looking to reconnect with God.
