Written as a result of his wife's diagnosis of a debilitating brain tumor and fight for her life, Pete Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray, and suffer through the silence because prayers seem unanswered. This time of silence, as Greig relates, is the most difficult. The world collapses, people avoid you and don't know what to say, and so you turn to God and you pray. You need Him more than ever before, but somehow even God Himself seems on mute. Honest, heart-searching and intensely personal, God on Mute looks at the hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seems 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. |
