LORD OF THE RING: A Journey In Search of Count Zinzendorf by Philip Anderson
GOD ON MUTE: Engaging the Silence of Unanswered Prayer by Pete Greig.
LORD OF THE RING: A Journey In Search of Count Zinzendorf by Philip AndersonBelieve it or not, this brilliantly researched book about Zinzendorf is the first proper biography published in the English language in fifty years! Zinzendorf really was the godfather not just of 24-7 prayer but also of the modern missions movements, and of the Christian unity
movements too (Zinzendorf invented the term ecumenical). Including material never before published in the English language this warts-and-all account of one of the most influencial men of the 18th century looks set to be a standard text for many.

The long-awaited book full of Pete's trademark honesty and humor offering real answers to some of life's biggest questions as well as comfort and hope to anyone who's struggling with the disappointments of unanswered prayer. 
Written from Pete's own experiences in the fight for his wife's life at the very time when the 24-7 movement was first exploding, Pete asks 'How do we deal with the fact that some-times our deepest prayers just don't work?"
PUNKMONK: New Monasticism & the Ancient Art of Breathing
by Andy Freeman & Pete Greig
For five years Andy Freeman and Pete Greig (below) have been actively exploring monastic-missional expressions of Christian community for the 21st century. Boiler Rooms, born out of their experiences in 24-7 prayer and largely inspired by the ancient Celts, are now multiplying in locations all over the world seeking to model a corporate lifestyle of prayer, mission, justice, hospitality,
creativity and learning. "It's a work in progress," says Andy, founder of the Reading Boiler Room, "but we're learning a lot along the way, and we're more convinced than ever that the new wine God is pouring out requires new wineskins too." This book, written in the vein of Red Moon Rising, tells stories of the journey so far, unpacking the underlying thinking and dreams aloud: 'what next?'
