The Prayer Course II
The Unanswered Prayer Course
The Unanswered Prayer Course is designed to help us engage in deep, honest conversation around the hardest and most personal questions we all ask about prayer. Questions such as: How am I going to get through this? Why aren't my prayers working? Where is God when heaven is silent? When will my prayers be answered?
Ever feel like God is silent?
Additional Resources
God on Mute
Pete Greig co-hosts The Unanswered Prayer Course and his book “God on Mute” is a great companion resource for the course. Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray and to suffer through the silence because your prayers seem unanswered. This silence, Greig relates, is the hardest thing. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can't explain, don't fit, won't work. 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. In this heart-searching, honest, and deeply profound book, Pete Greig 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 our experience for us. Here is a story of faith, hope, and love beyond all understanding.
Purchase a print or electronic book from Amazon, Indigo, or another bookstore of your choice.
