This book is both intensely personal and deeply theological--a book born out of his wife Sammy's fight for her life after a horrifying diagnosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe acclaimed author of \u003cem\u003eRed Moon Rising\u003c\/em\u003e wrestles with 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 our experience for us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor those struggling with prayer, \u003cem\u003eGod on Mute\u003c\/em\u003e brings a message of hope and comfort, but also a better understanding of how we communicate with our Creator. Using the timeline of Holy Week (from Maundy Thursday through Easter Sunday) as a template, Greig explores four main questions about prayer from all angles: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow am I going to get through this?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy aren't my prayers being answered?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere is God when he seems silent?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen every prayer \u003cem\u003eis \u003c\/em\u003eanswered...what does that mean?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilence in response to our most heart-felt prayers is the hardest thing for a person of faith to wrestle with. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can't explain what we're going through. People avoid you and don't know what to say. So you turn to Him and you pray. You need Him more than ever before. But somehow even God Himself seems on mute. And this sinks into us with a sense of futility...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut even in this crushing silence, there is a way forward. Here is a story of faith, hope, and love beyond all understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIncludes guide for group discussion.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pete Greig","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40701919068209,"sku":"9780310114635","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/9926\/3793\/files\/9780310114635.jpg?v=1780470931","url":"https:\/\/bakerbookhouse.com\/products\/9780310114635_god-on-mute","provider":"Baker Book House ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
