When things really go wrong, what do you do with the feeling
that God is to blame? A popular Coast to Coast radio host
(and Episcopal clergy) provides some answers. In a first of
its kind book, Ian Punnett provides a spiritual path for
expressing your rawest emotions through prayer and how to
rebuild a relationship with one's higher power--or anybody
else in your life. In this important and
practical book, Ian Punnett provides insight on
feeling anger and resentment toward God and offers advice on
how to deal with the pain and blame that accompanies these
emotions. In a book that is edgy, timely, funny and
compassionate, Punnett presents real help in everyday
language for transforming the negativity of anger into a
positive and useful force that will ultimately help us pray
more effectively, bring us closer to God, enhance our
spiritual relationship, and change the way we live and love
others. After a divorce, a broken friendship,
the death of a loved one, the loss of a job or even the
accumulation of all the tiny cracks in our spirit from
life's disappointments, it’s easy to feel pissed at God.
When anger is left unchecked, it is harmful to our
minds, bodies and souls.
“How to Pray When
You’re Pissed at God is not “the last word” on angry
prayer,” Punnett writes, “but it might be the first words
you have ever heard on the topic. By the end of the book, it
is my hope that you’ll understand the role of anger in our
lives, the benefit of honest prayer, and the need for
honest, angry prayer in the lives of the faithful and
faithless.”
