Trouble falls on us all, and sometimes at the most inopportune times. It happens not just to our loved ones, but to strangers we may never see again, yet who God wants us to lift up nevertheless: waiters, cab drivers, a fellow student at a coffeehouse, the widower sitting next to us in the waiting room, a stressed mom with kids in the checkout line, someone at the gym. It's not always easy to know what to say in those "divine encounters," but Prayers to Share: 100 Pass-Along Notes for Peace provides something that anyone can do.

Pete Greig is a worldwide authority and the face of a generation when it comes to prayer. One of the founders of the 24-7 prayer movement, he has seen, experienced, and chronicled amazing works of God in the world. While you might imagine him to be puffed up, Pete Greig is entirely the opposite. He is enchanting, down-to-earth, friendly, and most of all, very normal–and yet he tells preposterous tales about prayer (and they’re true). He is basically a regular dude who loves to talk with God. How to Pray is written to evoke a passion for prayer in everyone—the committed follower of Jesus as well as the skeptic and the scared. The enormous blessing of How to Pray is that it is accessible, full of surprising stories of answered prayer, and tremendously engaging. The basic idea is that prayer is a conversation between you and God. Pete Greig demystifies and reenchants prayer, helping you to find prayer achievable and enjoyable, and ultimately life-giving and life-changing. How to Pray is designed to be used together with The Prayer Course (a free video curriculum associated with the Alpha course), making it useful for personal and group or church-wide reading.
