Are you hurting and secretly wondering, “How am I going to get through
this? Why aren’t my prayers being answered? Where is God? When will my
prayers be answered?”
Writing out of the pain of his wife’s fight for her life, Pete Greig
steps into the dark side of prayer and emerges with a hard-won message
of hope, comfort, and profound biblical insight for all who suffer in
silence. God on Mute: Engaging the Silence of Unanswered Prayer is a
heart-searching, honest, and deeply profound book that looks at the
hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seem to be no answers,
and how to cope with those who seek to interpret your experience for
you.
If at the end of the book, you find that God remains on mute, there is
a 40-day prayer journey that will help you to turn your questions into
prayers. Each day of this journey prayerfully explores a bit of the
Bible, alongside a quote from the book.
• Explores 4 important questions people who are suffering face:
o How am I going to get through this?
o Why aren’t my prayers being answered?
o Where is God when heaven is silent?
o When will my prayers be answered?
• Includes a 40-day prayer journey that prayerfully explores a bit of
the Bible each day, alongside a quote from the book, helping you to
turn your questions into prayers.

"Let every student be plainly instructed . . . to consider well the
main end of . . . life and studies is to know God and Jesus Christ
which is eternal life . . . and therefore to lay Christ in the
bottom, as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and
learning." -Harvard College Laws, 1642 There was a time when
Harvard was considered a holy place and Princeton trained prophets,
when students and professors could not help but pray because there
were certain questions that could only be answered by an Intellect
greater than our own. There was a time when student leaders
galvanized campus movements, when young revolutionaries defied the
status quo of their generation and engaged in sacrificial service
that reshaped society and transformed culture. There was a time . .
. God on Campus traces a remarkable legacy of spiritual awakening
that stretches from the founding of the earliest colleges in the
United States to a global movement of nonstop student prayer
spreading across campuses today. "This is a book to help you
remember your roots," Trent Sheppard writes, "ordinary people like
you and me--bold and timid, brilliant and insecure, disillusioned
and dangerous, ambitious and naive, holy and fallen, fearless and
afraid--people who prayed, people who conspired together with their
friends in faith and action, people who believed their lives could
actually help shape the unfolding narrative of history." From the
establishment of early American campuses during the Great Awakening
to the rapidly spreading collegiate movements of the twenty-first
century, Sheppard shows how students can integrate their passion in
prayer with practical Christ-like living in culture. "The goal," he
explains, "is not for us to abandon our studies in economics or
education and all become preachers instead. The goal is to live
like Jesus in the very soul of society." Culminating in a movement
to mobilize prayer on every college and university campus in the
United States throughout 2010, God on Campus is an invitation for
students to find their place in the story of God today.
For many Christians, prayer is an obligation that has little bearing on everyday life. The story of the 24/7 prayer movement demonstrates in gripping detail how prayer is far more than an obligation and how God is far more interested in prayer than we are. Continuing to chronicle the life and extraordinary ministry of the 24/7 prayer movement for a readership anxiously awaiting this title, Pete Greig tells story after story of God’s faithful interaction with human prayer to change lives and cultures.
Nothing could possibly matter more than learning to discern the authentic voice of God, but few things in life are more susceptible to delusion, deception and downright abuse. When life falls apart and we need God's comfort; in moments of cultural turmoil when we need God's clarity; facing formidable decisions when we need God's guidance; desiring a deeper faith when we need God to say something, anything, to turn the monologue we call prayer into a genuine conversation.
Having addressed God's silence in God on Mute, and then How to Pray in his previous bestseller, Pete Greig is back to bring wisdom and guidance to one of the most pressing and perplexing aspects of universal Christian experience - How to Hear God. Exploring the story of Christ's playful, poignant conversation on the road to Emmaus, Pete draws deeply from the insights of a wide range of Christian traditions. He weaves together the evangelical emphasis upon hearing God in the Bible, and the charismatic commitment to hearing God in the prophetic, with the contemplative understanding of God's 'still, small voice' within.
Inspired by the hugely successful How to Pray. Pete Greig takes his
simple guide to prayer and gives children the same tools and
encouragement. How to Pray: A Guide for Young Explorers is packed
full of real life stories, teaching, fun facts, activities and
inspiration to get creative and confident in prayer. With insights
and ideas from CBBC presenter and author Gemma Hunt, children's
workers and children from around the country, this is the go-to
guide for prayer for a new generation.
Everyone prays. But no one finds it easy. We all need a little
help. Pete Greig has been teaching on prayer - and leading a
non-stop prayer movement - for twenty years. Now, for the first
time, he puts his life's work into a response to the question
everybody ultimately asks: how do I pray? This down-to-earth
introduction to life's greatest adventure will guide you deeper in
your relationship with God, helping you to become more centred and
still, clearer in discerning God's voice, more able to make sense
of your disappointments and more expectant for miraculous
breakthroughs too. It's full of honest, hard-won wisdom
interspersed with real-life stories - some humorous, others moving
- to equip and inspire your prayer life. Journeying through the
Lord's Prayer, and accompanied by online videos from The Prayer
Course, which has been used by more than a million people, it
unpacks nine essential aspects of prayer: stillness, adoration,
petition, intercession, perseverance, contemplation, listening,
confession and spiritual authority. From one of today's most
visionary communicators, for those who've been praying for years as
well as those who want to pray but don't know where to begin, How
to Pray is the simple, life-changing guide you've been waiting for.
Pack of 10: 16-page easy-to-read booklet introducing everyone to
the importance of prayer in our daily lives. What is prayer really
all about? Have you ever wondered what prayer is about and why
people bother? Maybe at times you've wanted to connect with God -
but didn't know how? Everyone can pray. It's simply a conversation
with God. So why not take a look at how prayer can be a part of
your daily life?
