If you had face time with God what would you want to talk about? Inside are conversations in the form of poems to God. The poems vary from funny to heartfelt and serious discussions with God. Some of the poems may be thoughts and/or questions you may have wondered and never thought to address them with God. The poems are not to instruct one on how to pray but to give insight that there are no subjects whether serious or comical that we cannot discuss with God. The book also has a prayer to share; each prayer poem is written twice with one to keep and one to share. Fredah El was born in Florida, a US veteran and currently living in New Mexico. Throughout my travels of life I have been asking questions. Some of the questions I could not get answers for and it prompted me to writing my questions to God in the form of poems.

Pete Greig, the acclaimed author of Red Moon Rising, has written his most intensely personal and honest account yet in God on Mute, a book born out of his wife Samie's fight for her life and diagnosis of a debilitating brain tumor. Greig asks the timeless questions of what it means to suffer and to pray and to suffer through the silence because your prayers seem unanswered. This silence, Greig relates, is the hardest thing. The world collapses. Then all goes quiet. Words can't explain, don't fit, won't work. 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. In this heart-searching, honest, and deeply profound book, Pete Greig looks at the hard side of prayer, how to respond when there seem 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.

A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

Ever felt guilty, stressed, unloved, ashamed, unnoticed, or overwhelmed but somehow had enough sense and strength to muster a thank you, Lord? Well, you are not alone. In some of my most distressing moments, all I could do was cry out to God because he alone could understand and bear my pain. I pray and praise him in good times, too, but not just for me. I pray, petition, and offer supplications for those I know and for some I never met. Prayer is a powerful weapon that no one can take away from you.

How does a person move from a place deficient of light? How can an individual shift from a place of complete and utter chaos, obscurity, apathy, and adversity? How does a person learn to live in a state of divine prophetic destiny? The pathway to transformation is through in-depth conversations with the One-True God of Creation - Elohim'. In order to move to a place of prophetic providence, your conversation must be divinely inspired. Hebrews 11:3 states: "The worlds were framed by the Word of God."

Allen, designed Conversations of a Watchman to: Draw you into a deeper conversation with the Father. Strengthen and renew your prayer life. Mend your brokenness, and enlighten your pathway.

Provoking us to intimate, fulfilling conversation, Conversations with the Most High will help prepare the Christian believer’s heart to enter the throne room of God. A blessed resource each day, 365 devotions steeped in Scripture engage our focus and prompt us in communication with the God who gives us His attention. Peppered with quotes from notable historical pray-ers and experts on prayer, the short and timely narratives make for excellent discussion starters and listening gauges for conversation with God. Before Christ’s sacrifice for our sins, humanity had to rely solely on the high priest to go into the “secret place” known as the Holy of Holies and petition God on our behalf. Jesus Christ’s finished work on the Cross changed everything. Now, we, too, can enter the presence of the Most High God if our hearts and minds are prepared for worshipping and engaging in the life-changing conversation that He longs to have with us. Who would forsake such a privilege?
