    *CTR BOOK OF THE YEAR*

    How much do we really know about prayer?

    About what it is, what it does, and where it can lead us?

    For years now Pete Greig has made it his cause and calling to open up prayer, and through it drastically alter what we think is possible. This is what inspired the 24-7 Prayer Movement. The idea of committing so wholly to prayer that not a single hour is left unfilled with prayer. Red Moon Rising bore witness to this movement, charting its first five years and the changes that came with total commitment to prayer.

    Now, in Dirty Glory, Pete Greig deepens his exploration of prayer by looking at how encountering God through prayer, and what his presence achieves, is still the same powerful rejection of back-slapping status quo.

    This is a book for the dissatisfied; those people who don't seek change, but expect it.

    These true stories of God's phenomenal impact across the world are not just stories to give you hope. They're there to stretch your belief in what is possible with God, to seek Glory in the ruin and rubble, and to bring action in despair.

    Dirty Glory won't inspire you to pray with comfy stories or healing, but rather show that there is only ever one response to wanting to see God move...To Pray and to Go.

    Foreword by Bear Grylls Following on from the success of Red Moon Rising, which tells the story of the first five years of the 24-7 prayer movement, Dirty Glory describes stories of transformation, from a walled city of prostitution in Mexico to the nightclubs of Ibiza, and invites people to experience the presence of God through prayer. An autobiographical adventure story spanning four continents, describing one of the most exciting movements of the Holy Spirit in our time, Dirty Glory will inspire and equip those dissatisfied with the status quo and passionate about the possibilities for spiritual and social transformation in our time.

      A compelling read from beginning to end a book which demonstrates how prayer intercedes lives. The thread of action packed life stories make you wonder how the interventions and guidance of the Lord's working could be real - but obviously they are!

      This is a life changing account of the progress of the 24/7 prayer initiative. The reader is asked to address big questions about the character of God. We are reminded that it is the character we see in Jesus, who was seen to love all people but especially the marginalised. He chooses the weak in order that we might witness His almighty power.

      If you only read one book this year - read this! A great encouragement to keep praying even in the bad times. Wonderful examples of answered prayer.
