You were told that if your faith was real, God would feel real.
You prayed. You showed up. You did everything you were taught to do. And then the warmth faded, and nobody warned you that could happen, or told you what to do when it did.
When God Goes Quiet is written for the believer living in the silence nobody prepared them for. If prayer feels like it's hitting the ceiling, Scripture has gone flat, and the faith that once felt alive now feels like going through the motions, this book was written for you.
Drawing on the lament psalms, the doctrine of union with Christ, and the wisdom of the church's deepest thinkers, Dr. Chad Morrison offers not a technique for making God feel close again, but something far more durable: a biblical framework for remaining faithful to a God you cannot currently find.
You will learn:
Why spiritual silence is not evidence of spiritual failureHow to pray honestly when words have run outWhy your union with Christ does not depend on what you feelWhat God may be doing in the silence that He could not do any other wayHow the community of faith carries you when you cannot carry yourselfThis is not a book about getting out of the dark quickly. It is a book about who God is, what He has done, and why the silence, however long it lasts, is not the final word.
