Best-selling book from one of the leading Christian authors and thinkers, now fully revised with a new 40-day devotional.
Writing out of the pain of his wife's fight for her life, but also the wonder of watching the prayer movement they founded changing lives around the world, 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.
In his foreword, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby writes, "This is a profound book, simply and accessibly written, suitable for a person in distress, for the pastor and minister of a church who deals constantly with people in distress, for the person outside Christian faith who is baffled by people relying on what someone once described to me as the fairies at the bottom of the garden, and for that matter for those studying the issues of suffering and God's relationship with it."
