The Transformative Power of Prayer and the Gift of Sabbaticals with Pete Greig- Episode 1030  
Podcast: That Sounds Fun with Annie F. Downs
Published On: Mon Feb 02 2026
Description: You may remember Pete Greig when he was on our last prayer series here on That Sounds Fun. He’s an author and founder of the 24/7 prayer movement, and y’all have heard me reference the daily devotional Lectio365 so many times- he's the co-host of that! I LOVE it. Today we’re talking about Pete’s recent 3 month sabbatical, how time with God and prayer shifted for him and his wife during those months, what they learned from it, and how prayer impacts our relationship with God. I also got to ask him what we do when God doesn’t answer our prayers.. and I think Pete’s wisdom in his response is SO helpful.  I can’t wait for you to hear this, and I would love for you to keep talking to us about this episode over on Substack!
