witness to others. People are inhaling second-hand toxins poisoning their relationship with God and stunting their spiritual growth.

The author explores the vital role of silence in the Christian story. How should one speak to God? Are our…
prayers more likely to be heard if we offer them quietly at home or loudly in church? How can we really know if God is listening?
