What God Is Up to in the Silence

Ste Casey addresses the disappointment that comes when life seems to go from bad to worse despite our fervent prayers for change.

When pain and disappointment shrink our world to the size of what's troubling us, we can easily miss what's right in front of us—our God and his daily grace. Pastor and counselor Ste Casey reminds readers that although our worries, fears, and suffering can fill our mind's eye, the truth is that God is still watching, keeping, caring, hearing, and speaking to us.

I Prayed and Nothing Changed will challenge you to be honest as you talk to God about your struggles in our messed-up world. Casey points readers to see all that God is doing, even when he seems distant, and encourages readers with specific ways we can see God at work in the silence.
