God on Mute was written out of Pete’s own experience of the miraculous power of prayer alongside the pain of unanswered prayer and the common human struggle to find faith with that paradox. Just after the birth of the 24-7 Prayer Movement and of his second child, Pete’s wife Samie was diagnosed with a massive brain tumor. Subsequent surgery to remove the cancer was successful but she continues to suffer terrible epilepsy and his deepest prayers for her healing did not work. Tracking Christ’s own unanswered prayer through Gethsemane and Golgotha, the book leads the reader to Easter Sunday where miracles arise – often when we least expect it.

Pete is passionate about the message of God on Mute because it will help many hurting people to hang onto God when they need him more than ever before. Our hope is that God on Mute will inspire people to persevere in prayer and to admit to their struggles as well as their encouragements.

Quite simply, brilliant! Pete Greig has encountered God through a silent whisper and a ray of darkness. In these honest and courageous of insights, Peter and Samie invite us to join their journey to God's heart. This book made me cry on a crowdered train! - RUSSELL ROOK, Director, ALOVE: Salvation Army

Pete Greig has written an extrodinarily honest book. A few (books about prayer) have been so important in my life that they made getting through all the others worthwhile - just to find these gems. I think, for example, of Richard Foster's 'Prayer' or C.S. Lewis' 'Letters to Malcolm'...This book is the most recent member of this "B-List." (There is no "A-List." "B" in this case means best, beautiful, and be sure to recommend to others.) - BRIAN McLAREN
