God’s call for us doesn’t end when we retire. In fact, many of our biblical saints were in their later years before God called them to the adventures for which we know them: leadership, new life, transformation, healing. Their lives demonstrate that true callings are discerned not simply through reason and circumstance but also through self-knowledge and conversation with God. In Answering God's Call, spiritual director Barbara Lee uses Scripture-focused prayer to help readers connect with some of our elder saints and consider what God reveals to us through their lives. We will spend time with Anna and Abram, Simon’s mother-in-law and Namaan the Syrian, a widow, a leper, a king, and a late-in-life mother-to-be, among others, who will open for us the calls to trust humility stillness forgiveness service radical change letting go choosing caregiving courage... Dare to receive what your life is now—and ask God how to live it best.

More than a decade ago, Jerry Sittser prayed for the protection of his family, yet three of his loved ones--his daughter, his wife, and his mother--died in an automobile accident. What went wrong? "Why wasn't my prayer answered?" he asks. "It is no longer an abstract question to me. What should we do and how should we respond when our prayers--prayers that seem right and true and good--go unanswered?" In When God Doesn't Answer Your Prayer, Sittser continues exploring the issues he addressed in A Grace Disguised. He asks, "Why doesn't God answer our prayers? What, if anything, can we do about it?" Sittser is intensely committed to exploring the Christian faith, especially when it doesn't seem to "work." In this thoughtful and beautifully written book, he moves beyond easy answers and religious formulas to explore the goodness and greatness of a God who cannot be controlled but can be trusted. When God Doesn't Answer Your Prayer takes an honest and probing look at the problem of unanswered prayer. In doing so, it draws us ever deeper into a relationship with the God who is the end of all our prayers, the object of our faith, the one who fulfills our deepest longings.

Others are "prayer professionals": they are gifted in the practice of prayer; prayer seems to flow authentically and effectively from their hearts. Whether you are a plodder or a professional, you can be a prayer warrior—one whose prayers are powerful and effectual—even efficient. Even if prayer doesn't always come easily or your prayers aren't always answered as you'd hoped, you will come away from this book convinced that God rewards genuine prayer. Open the pages of this book and see for yourself what happens when God answers prayer!

"Dave Johnson has produced a life memoir that illustrates God's grace and his leading. I've known Dave for over 30 years, and have appreciated his heart for evangelism, for service, and his diligence in pursuing a call that would leave a legacy. He's been intentional and looked at ministry through the lens of multiplying the Message. From evangelistic meetings, to mentoring, to pursuing advanced studies and now through a passion that Asian theologians and leaders would write and influence their church and the next generations, Dave has passionately pursued the call. He and Debbie are pursuing a life that is invested in Kingdom purposes. As in most stories, you may find links to your own life. I think you will be encouraged to see how God worked in the life of one man, walking with him through times of joy and times of struggle. From this story, we can reaffirm how God will work in each of our lives. Dave has provided detail, not glossed over times of searching, and in that has provided an encouraging word that affirms our God who does all things well." Rev. William Snider Former Area Director, Southeast Asia, Assemblies of God (USA) World Missions From the Foreword "Let me make something clear from the beginning. Writing my memoirs does not mean that we are retiring. Far from it. We intend to be in missions for as long as God wants us here. This book is about leaving a legacy, hopefully a good one, and doing what we can to get it into the hands of those for whom it is intended." Dave Johnson Adapted from the Introduction

In answering God's call to discipleship, each person must willfully surrender his or her powerful and natural desire to live according to self-seeking worldly rules and norms. Instead comes the commitment to strive to live ever closer to Him in love, trust, and obedience. This decision is radical and thus difficult. But the rewards of striving to become a Christ-centered spiritual being rather than a worldly one are profound and miraculous. The path to living according to God's will rather than our own is clearly directed by Scripture and is unequivocally defined by the life, teachings, sacrificial death, and resurrection of Christ. Every step is guided by the Holy Spirit. This book of daily readings is designed to help take you day by day into seeking life in His very presence. In it, you will find insights and advice on the struggles that are part of the spiritual growth each individual must have to be transformed into His image, which He intended at the very moment of your creation. It is part of John's ministry of teaching, speaking, and writing about the power and glory of actually answering Christ's universal call to His discipleship. Visit www.johnwhenderson.com.
