When God Goes Silent

Some books promise a microphone from heaven. This one names the silence. When God Goes Silent is a theologically serious, psychologically honest guide for Christians who have prayed hard, waited long, and heard nothing back. Instead of selling shortcuts, D. Michael Gross walks the reader through Scripture's own witness to divine muteness-psalms that end in questions, prophets who wait for years, the four hundred years "between the Testaments, " and the cry of Christ Himself.
The book refuses the fake optimism of modern church culture and shows how to live faithfully when the feedback loop breaks. This is not a how-to manual. It is a survival map: how to distinguish event-silence from state-silence, how to resist the religious panic response, how to keep integrity when the testimony culture rewards performance over truth, and how to build a durable faith that can stand without constant signals.
Pastoral yet unsentimental, biblical yet unvarnished, this is a companion for the long dark-where hope becomes stubborn, prayer becomes honest, and love chooses to remain. If you're done pretending and still unwilling to quit, this is the book that will sit beside you in the quiet and tell the truth.
