Batterson challenges readers to pray “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” (I Samuel 3:9) He suggests seven ways to hear the voice of God: study scripture, pay attention to desires, watch for open doors, understand dreams, study people, be sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and recognize the redemptive value of pain.

Another suggestion!  Gather a group of friends and read and discuss the book together.
