How to Hear God

A Simple Guide for Normal People

De: Pete Greig

Narrado por: Pete Greig

You were created to enjoy a real, conversational relationship with God.

The Bible says that hearing the voice of our Creator is both central and natural to our existence as humans.

• When life falls apart, we need God's comfort.
• In moments of cultural turmoil, we need his clarity.
• Facing difficult decisions, we need his guidance.
• Desiring a deeper faith, we need God to say something, anything, to turn the monologue we call prayer into a genuine conversation.

But how do we really hear God?

Nothing could possibly matter more than learning to discern his authentic voice, and yet few things in life are more susceptible to delusion, deception, and downright abuse.

Having addressed God's silence in God on Mute, and then How to Pray in his previous bestseller, Pete Greig is back to bring wisdom and guidance to one of the most pressing and perplexing aspects of universal Christian experience—How to Hear God.

Exploring the story of Christ's playful, poignant conversation on the road to Emmaus after his resurrection, Pete draws deeply from the insights of a wide range of Christian traditions; weaving together the evangelical emphasis on hearing God in the Bible, and the charismatic commitment to hearing God in the prophetic, with the contemplative understanding of God's "still, small voice" within.

"Pete transcends the Christian tribalism of our day… rooting us in something far more ancient, unchanging, timeless. What the early Christians called the Way. This ancient form of Christianity is the antidote to much of the modern church's pain. The cure for our ills." —John Mark Comer

One of my top favorite Christian reads

I really enjoyed this book. It is one of those life changers, in my opinion. Pretty comprehensive and balanced look at how God talks with us (though I am sure there are always more ways God can choose to talk to us)! It was really what I have been needing at this point in my life and I recommend it to everyone.

Life changing and freeing

Listening to Pete’s voice and passion for getting to know our Savior and all the ways to learn to hear His voice… Life changing and freeing to not box God in as how He is always speaking to us… not in just ‘religious’ ways ! I’m so excited to realize I’ve been hearing Jesus so much more than I realized!!

The Road To Emmaus

I've always loved that story, I really appreciate the deep dive into this scripture. I consider this a must read.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Excellent Work

This book spoke to me in a deep way that is practical and necessary for my life. I will buy a hard copy and read it over and over.

amazing!

This was a great book, so interesting. so many good points! Love his accent as well. so pleasant to listen to.

An Imperative Classic

I put How to Hear God: A Simple Guide for Normal People in the same category as Dallas Willard's Hearing God: Developing a Conversational Relationship with God. You obviously cannot see my copy of Peter's book but almost every page is underlined or highlighted or both. :) Grieg's laid back style and delivery drew me in. God has spoken to me (rhēma) about learning to hear his whisper through this book and Peter.

The overall simplicity of what he is teaching and how I can use it in my own daily walk.

Mr. Greig is a wonderful speaker and I so enjoyed listening to this as well as How to Pray on audio. These are the first two books I’ve listened to all the way thru as I much prefer a book in hand. He kept my attention and spoke in such an understanding yet profound way. Thank you for your insight, simple way of teaching and for the time you spent to do this.

Biblical, personal, historical, practical

Pete has written another moving book that is grounded in scripture, filled with wisdom and principles from throughout time, but remains deeply personal and guides us in ways we can practically apply new ideas and practices to our lives. My only critique here is that he uses the term dispensationalism when referring to cessationism, which are distinct. But this is a very easy mistake to make.

An Awesome Listen

I love Pete Greig’s voice and so pleased he recorded his book himself. Thank you for baring your soul and inspiring us!

Yet another influential work by Pete Greig

Pete’s teaching, story-telling, and invitation into a deeper, quieter relationship with Jesus is just what is needed. I could (and do!) listen to him for days on end. Highly recommend this audio book, as well as his nightly Lectio readings on Lectio365 app. Well done, Pete, and thank you!
