Gospel recording artist and Forward City Pastor, Travis Greene, is set to release a new book, ‘Are You Praying for the Wrong Thing?’ on May 14. The highly anticipated premiere is already topping charts. Pre-orders helped the book reach the no. 1 spot in its category on Amazon one month ahead of the official launch.

In the book, Greene challenges readers to ask what God wants for them, not just what they want, reminding them that God is not a genie in a bottle. He shares that “praying the right thing” includes praying for our will to be closer to God’s, and planning and preparing for what we asked for.

The new author shares strategy on navigating beyond feeling trapped to thriving in God’s purposes, learning to use what’s left instead of focusing on what was lost, being willing to forgive, wait, and work as God allows and, believing in God’s miracles while being a faithful steward of what He has already provided. Green encourages readers that they may be closer to enjoying God’s promises than they realize as it may come through an avenue they never imagined.
