Be still. For some, these two simple words a welcome invitation to
slow down. For others, they feel impossible, out of reach in our
increasingly noisy world, or simply just too hard to maintain.
There is another way. In fact, there are many. In this practical,
easy-to-read guide, Brian Heasley explores the multitude of rhythms
of Christian prayer and devotion available to every believer. From
memorising scripture and prayer running to noticing beauty
everywhere, he demonstrates how we don't need to be static for our
hearts to be still, and how even in the midst of a full, busy life,
we can spend quiet time with God. Be Still is a prayer book for
anyone looking for ways to revitalise the way they pray or who is
struggling to make space for devotional time with God. Packed full
of ideas for different ways to pray and tips and advice for how to
build prayer practices into everyday life, Brian's book will change
the way you think about prayer and devotion and equip you with all
the tools you need to deepen your relationship with God. You can
use the book individually or in small groups, or read it alongside
24-7 Prayer's new Be Still prayer course. It also makes a great
resource for youth leaders looking to help teenagers cultivate
daily rhythms of prayer and spend more quiet time with God, or as a
gift for people starting out on their faith journey or those
returning to faith after a while. Join Brian Heasley, and discover
the different ways in which we can all Be Still.

An invitation to an ordinary yet radical way of life, using
historic Christian practices as both inspiring vision and practical
instruction for how to encounter the wondrous, mysterious, living
God through prayer. Prayer is the source of Jesus's most
astonishing miracles and the subject of Jesus's most audacious
promises, and yet, most people--even most Bible-believing
Christians--find prayer to be boring, obligatory, disappointing,
confusing, or, most often, all of the above. If you've ever felt
this way, Praying Like Monks, Living Like Fools is your invitation
to trade your conceptions and misconceptions about prayer for
prayer in its purest form: a vital, sustaining, powerful connection
with God that is more real and alive than you could have ever
imagined. In these pages, Tyler Staton--author, pastor, and
national director of the 24/7 Prayer movement--addresses common
roadblocks to prayer and gives you the confidence to come to God
just as you are. Through biblical teaching, powerful storytelling,
and insights on historic Christian practices, Staton helps you . .
. Express your doubts and disappointments about prayer Discover and
practice multiple postures of prayer, including silence,
persistence, confession, and more Understand and embrace the wonder
and mystery of prayer in everyday life Realize that prayer is a
powerful invitation to partner with God in the redemption of a
fallen world And, ultimately, open or reopen the line of
communication with your Creator and experience afresh his divine
power on earth
Declining church attendance. A growing feeling of betrayal. For
Christians who have begun to feel set adrift and disillusioned by
their churches, Where Goodness Still Grows grounds us in a new view
of virtue deeply rooted in a return to Jesus Christ's life and
ministry. The evangelical church in America has reached a
crossroads. Social media and recent political events have exposed
the fault lines that exist within our country and our spiritual
communities. Millennials are leaving the church, citing hypocrisy,
partisanship, and unkindness as reasons they can't stay. In this
book Amy Peterson explores the corruption and blind spots of the
evangelical church and the departure of so many from the faith -
but she refuses to give up hope, believing that rescue is on the
way. Where Goodness Still Grows: Dissects the moral code of
American evangelicalism Reimagines virtue as a tool, not a weapon
Explores the Biblical meaning of specific virtues like kindness,
purity, and modesty Provides comfort, hope, and a path towards
spiritual restoration Amy writes as someone intimately familiar
with, fond of, and deeply critical of the world of conservative
evangelicalism. She writes as a woman and a mother, as someone
invested in the future of humanity, and as someone who just needs
to know how to teach her kids what it means to be good. Amy finds
that if we listen harder and farther, we will find the places where
goodness still grows. Praise for Where Goodness Still Grows: "In
this poignant, honest book, Amy Peterson confronts her
disappointment with the evangelical leaders who handed her The Book
of Virtues then happily ignored them for the sake of political
power. But instead of just walking away, Peterson rewrites the
script, giving us an alternative book of virtues needed in this
moment. And it's no mistake that it ends with hope." - James K. A.
