"If you are hurting and secretly wondering -

'Where is God?' and

'Why's this happened to me?' and

‘How come my prayers aren't working?'

then I dedicate this book to you." 


Writing out of the pain of his wife's fight for her life but also the wonder of watching the prayer movement they founded touch many lives, Pete Greig wrestles with 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.

— from the foreword by Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury

Journey.

Leading the reader carefully through the four days of Christ's passion, Pete Greig pauses at each stage to explore one of the great questions with which we all struggle when we suffer:

+ Maundy Thursday ~ 'How am I going to get through this?'
+ Good Friday ~ 'Why aren't my prayers being answered?'
+ Holy Saturday ~ 'Where is God when heaven is silent?'
+ Easter Sunday ~ 'When will my prayers be answered?

The best resource on unanswered prayer, bar none.
— John Mark Comer, Practicing the Way
A masterpiece. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
— Nicky Gumbel, Alpha International
I was bombarded with relief reading this book.
