Author Interview: Pete Greig
P
ete is a bestselling author, pastor and bewildered instigator of the 24-7 Prayer movement which has reached more than half the nations on earth. He is also the Senior Pastor of Emmaus Rd, Guildford, England, an Ambassador for the NGO Tearfund, and teaches at St Mellitus Theological College in London. For 7 years Pete served with the senior leadership team at HTB and Alpha International.
We're presenting here your new book, How to Hear God. When you wrote your previous book, How to Pray, did you have a follow up in mind? No, I was kind of blown away by the way that the last book took off. I went to the Lord in prayer and He made it clear to me that I was to write on this particular theme which happened to work really well as a follow up to How To Pray! When I told the rest of the 24-7 team that this was what I was thinking of doing they all said 'Thank goodness! What took you so long?'. Really listening to God is the other side of the conversation when it comes to prayer. You're one of the instigators of the 24/7 Prayer Movement. How did that come about and what moved you to help start this? We started the first 24-7 Prayer Room way back in 1999. We weren't trying to start a movement at all. We just finally acknowledged that we were really bad at praying. And so we started praying round the clock to see what would happen. And then the prayer room began to multiply all around the world. And now today, all these years later, we're in well over half the nations on earth and we've been praying non-stop for more than 20 years. In what way has your new book spoken to and challenged you? This was the hardest book I've written so far. Nothing matters more than learning to hear God for ourselves and yet we've all been hurt by those claiming to have heard God's voice falsely, or confused when we try to hear God and got it wrong. The backbone of this book is the wonderful Emmaus Road story. This story is loaded with revelation for all of us. It's such an important topic.
Want to know more? Read our full interview on our blog!
What's next in the pipeline? In May we've got the Wildfires Festival at the Wiston Estate and I'm really excited about that. And also very busy with Lectio 365, our daily devotional, which is used by tens of thousands of people every day. It's an extraordinary privilege to be able to create this material that impacts so many lives. So there's plenty going on to keep me busy!
How to Hear God: A Simple Guide for Normal People
for 2022! « New
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. 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.

Lent: Wednesday 2nd March - Thursday 14th April Embracing Justice
The Archbishop of Canterbury's Lent Book 2022
Isabelle Hamley In the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Lent Book for 2022, Isabelle Hamley invites us on an exhilarating journey through Scripture to discover how we, as churches, communities and individual Christians, can seek and practice justice even when enmeshed in such a fractured world. Full of practical encouragement, Embracing Justice brilliantly weaves together biblical texts, diverse voices, contemporary stories, and personal and group meditations to reveal liberating and imaginative ways in which we may grow in discipleship - and more fully reflect the justice, mercy and compassion of Christ in our lives.

Hope in Times of Fear: The Resurrection and the Meaning of Easter
Timothy Keller The resurrection of Jesus is at the heart of the Christian faith, bringing God's power - which will some day heal and renew the world - into our lives now. That power is here only partially, but substantially; and this gives Christians a realistic, but irrepressible, hope. It is a hope for change in our lives and in our society; a hope that changes Christians in every way, shaping every aspect of our lives. But it is only together with the cross that we see the particular way resurrection hope shapes us. Hope in Times of Fear unlocks the meaning of both the cross and Jesus' resurrection. Here the central message of the Christian faith is revealed - with unshakable belief, piercing insight and a profound message of hope for the world. Pb | 272 pgs | HODDER FAITH

The Hour is Come: The Passion in Real Time
Andrew Nunn The Gospel accounts change when we come to the final days of Jesus’ life and for the first time we are given precise timings when things happen, ‘It was night’, ‘the next morning’, ‘it was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him’, ‘it was noon’, ‘it was three o’clock in the afternoon’. The Hour is Come enables readers to enter into the experience of Jesus, his disciples and all the other players in the Passion narrative by using ‘real time’ to immerse us in the story. Ideal for daily reading during Lent, Holy Week and Easter, it offers scripture reflections and prayers that trace the journey to and beyond the cross. This presentation reveals a God so intimately involved with human life that the ticking clock becomes part of how we know Jesus. Pb | 208 pgs | CANTERBURY PRESS

Hope and the Nearness of God: The 2022 Lent Book
Teresa White In these days of pandemic, war and political turbulence, hope can seem to be in short supply. But hope is one of the theological virtues and it is far more profound than mere optimism. Today, pessimism and despair seem all too prevalent. What can we do about the poor and starving, about those who seem to be locked in interminable conflict and families weighed down by the consequences of breakdown? Sister Teresa White's book is an antidote to all this and it is written with beautiful simplicity and directness. She draws on inspiration from writers as diverse as Julian of Norwich and Karl Rahner, Elizabeth Barrett-Browning and Henri Nouwen, but throughout the book there is strong scriptural underpinning which the author uses to great effect.

Through each week of Lent, a different aspect of the Easter story is examined: repenting, changing, hoping, trusting, forgiving, loving and sacrificing. Within each week, the days are focused on what we need to do in order to share the story: listening, understanding, reflecting, living, telling, sharing and becoming. Each day offers a Bible passage, followed by a reflection and prayer activity. Pb | 208 pgs | BRF

Stephen Cherry At a time of change, uncertainty and widespread anxiety, we need to discover again the freshness of our most familiar spiritual resources.

Cross-Examined: The Life-Changing Power of the Death of Jesus
Mark Meynell The crucifixion of Jesus: a dreadful mistake? A tragic failure? Irrelevant? Absurd? An embarrassment? The cross of Christ is, in fact, at the centre of God's plan for men and women. This book explains why. With freshness and clarity, Mark Meynell explores the Bible's teaching, to show how God Himself 'cross-examines' us in the death of Jesus.

Come & See: Learning From the Life of Peter
Stephen Cottrell When we look at the life of Peter - fisherman, disciple, leader of the church - we find somebody who responded wholeheartedly to the call to 'come and see'. Come and meet Jesus, come and follow him, come and find your life being transformed. This book focuses on Peter, not because he is the best-known of Jesus' friends, nor the most loyal, but because he shows us what being a disciple of Jesus is actually like. Like us, he takes a step of faith and then flounders, and needs the saving touch of God to continue becoming the person he was created to be. Come and See provides a pattern of Bible reading, reflection and prayer. Twenty-eight readings, arranged in four sections, offer short passages from the story of Peter, plus comment and questions for personal response or group discussion. Pb | 160 pgs | BRF

Jane was back in the UK on holiday when war broke out in 1939, but she immediately went back to Hungary to do all she could to protect the children at the school. She refused to leave in 1940, and again in March 1944 when Hungary was invaded by the Nazis. Her brave persistence led to her arrest by the Gestapo in April 1944.

This small book records some of my journey.’ Growing up in the Vietnam era, living through periods of American conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan, and engaging with the ethics of war, gun control, the death penalty, abortion, and the inhumane treatment of prisoners, McKnight has developed a peace ethic that embodies the self-denial ethic of Jesus and demonstrates that warring and the Christian faith are incompatible. for 2022! « New

Seven Days that Divide the World: The Beginning According to Genesis and Science
for 2022! « New
John C. Lennox What did the writer of Genesis mean by the first day? Are the seven days in Genesis 1 a literal week or a series of time periods? If I believe that the earth is 4.5 billion years old as cosmologists believe, am I denying the authority of Scripture? With examples from history, a brief but thorough exploration of the major interpretations, and a look into the particular significance of the creation of human beings, Lennox suggests that Christians can heed modern scientific knowledge while staying faithful to the biblical narrative. He moves beyond a simple response to the controversy, insisting that Genesis teaches us far more about the God of Jesus Christ and about God's intention for creation than it does about the age of the earth.

His many paths include the way to Walsingham, a Holy Week pilgrimage against the usual tide from Ely to Cambridge, St Herbert's Island in Derwentwater, the Holy Island off Arran, and further pilgrimages to Iona, and Lindisfarne. What makes such places numinous? What gives them that peculiar quality that even those who are sceptical of such things find strange, even challenging? This exceptional observation of the natural and internal landscapes revealed by solitary pilgrimage is a journey that cannot be finished this side of eternity. Hb | 256 pgs | DLT

They Turned the World Upside Down: A Storyteller’s Journey with Those Who Dared to Follow Jesus

Charles Martin Walk in the shoes of the disciples, as New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin brings their stories to life with his storyteller’s perspective. In the first century, 'believer' didn’t just mean someone who heard and agreed with Jesus; it meant someone who acted on that belief. And when the outside world saw the faith of these new believers, they declared 'they turned the world upside down' (Acts 17:6). That’s the kind of believer Charles Martin wants us to be. In his second non-fiction work, he uses his talents as a novelist to walk you through the lives of the disciples in the aftermath of the Resurrection and as they spread the message of the Gospel and 'turn the world upside down', leading up to Paul’s ministry in Thessonalica.
