John Peckham returns to The Stone Chapel Podcast to discuss a new book, titled "Why We Pray: Understanding Prayer in the Context of Cosmic Conflict" (Baker Academic, 2024). Rather than conceiving of prayer as merely communication one to another, Peckham asks of us to put prayer within the context of what is and has been going on since creation; there is a conflict between God and the principalities and power. There are conflicts too between human beings and God. In particular, Peckham's book tackles the thorny question of seemingly unanswered prayers.
Check out John's earlier book, "The Theodicy of Love."
