“This first volume in the Every Moment Holy series contains liturgies for the ordinary events of daily life — liturgies for “Feasting with Friends” or “Laundering” or “the First Hearthfire of the Season.” These are ways of reminding us that our lives are full of sacred purpose even when, especially when, we are too busy or too caught up in our busyness to notice.

An index is provided in the back of the book to allow the user to more easily locate liturgies for particular occasions or needs.

It’s hoped that the liturgies in this book, no matter how they are used, will serve as prayers to encourage readers in practicing mindfulness of the constant presence of God and draw them toward greater recognition of the eternal echoes resounding in every moment of our lives.”

“EVERY MOMENT HOLY, Vol. 2: DEATH, GRIEF, & HOPE, is a book of liturgies for seasons of dying and grieving–liturgies such as ‘A Liturgy for the Scattering of Ashes’ or ‘A Liturgy for the Loss of a Spouse’ or ‘A Liturgy for the Wake of a National Tragedy’ or ‘A Liturgy for the Weighing of Last-Stage Medical Options.’ These are ways of reminding us that our lives are shot through with sacred purpose and eternal hopes even when, especially when, suffering and pain threaten to overwhelm us.”

“For those struggling with prayer, God on Mute 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:

• How am I going to get through this?
• Why aren’t my prayers being answered?
• Where is God when he seems silent?
• When every prayer is answered…what does that mean?

Silence 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…

But even in this crushing silence, there is a way forward. Here is a story of faith, hope, and love beyond all understanding.”

“Nothing could possibly matter more than learning to discern the authentic voice of God, but few things in life are more susceptible to delusion, deception, and downright abuse. When life falls apart and we need God’s comfort; in moments of cultural turmoil when we need his clarity; facing formidable decisions when we need his guidance; desiring a deeper faith when we need God to say something, anything, to turn the monologue we call prayer into a genuine conversation.

Having addressed God’s silence in God on Mute, and then How to Pray in his previous bestseller, Pete Greig is back to bring wisdom and guidance to one of the most pressing and perplexing aspects of universal Christian experience–How to Hear God. Exploring the story of Christ’s playful, poignant conversation on the road to Emmaus, Pete draws deeply from the insights of a wide range of Christian traditions. He weaves together the evangelical emphasis upon hearing God in the Bible, and the charismatic commitment to hearing God in the prophetic, with the contemplative understanding of God’s ‘still, small voice’ within.”

“In this practical, easy-to-read guide, Brian Heasley explores the multitude of rhythms of Christian prayer and devotion available to every believer. From memorizing scripture and prayer running to noticing beauty everywhere, he demonstrates how we don’t need to be static for our hearts to be still, and how even in the midst of a full, busy life, we can spend quiet time with God.

Be Still is a prayer book for anyone looking for ways to revitalize the way they pray or who is struggling to make space for devotional time with God. Packed full of ideas for different ways to pray and tips and advice for how to build prayer practices into everyday life, Brian’s book will change the way you think about prayer and devotion and equip you with all the tools you need to deepen your relationship with God.”
