Most Christians experience zeal early in their Christian life, but when that fades to a season of dryness, it's tempting to assume one of two things: We have failed or God is absent. So we throw ourselves into ministry, spiritual disciplines, and study in order to break through to the other side of this dry season, not realizing that willpower and habit modification cannot "fix" our spiritual lives or kick-start a new season of spiritual growth. Why? Because we've missed the point of the wilderness.

Spiritual formation experts Kyle Strobel and John Coe want to show you what you've been missing when it comes to prayer.

Each chapter ends with prayer projects or practices to help you see a difference in your prayer life, starting now.
