He Speaks in the Silence is the story of Diane Comer’s search for the kind of intimacy with God every woman longs for. It is a story of trying to be a good girl, of following the rules, of longing for a satisfaction that eludes us.Disappointed with all Diane had been told was supposed to fulfill her, she begged God in desperation to give her more.And He did. But first He took her through a trial so debilitating it almost destroyed what little faith she had.He let her go deaf.Like so many Christians, Diane thought she’d signed up for the “wonderful plan for your life” and deafness certainly didn’t fit her idea of a wonderful life. Yet in her brokenness, God met her and lifted her out of the pit of despair she was digging for herself. He lifted her onto the solid rock of real faith, and taught her to believe He is good even when life goes bad.Using vivid parallels between her deafness and every woman’s struggle to hear God, this book reveals how Diane learned to listen to God, finding intimacy with her Savior and the soul deep satisfaction she longs for.

Diane Comer has partnered alongside her husband in planting a now thriving church in Portland, Oregon. Married 35 years, with four grown children and a passel of grandkids, she is a teacher, a writer, and the co-founder of Intentional, a conference for parents whose great hope is to raise passionate Jesus followers. Sharing the story losing her hearing on www.hespeaksinthesilence.com, Diane writes about living in the beautiful brokenness of the belief that God invites every woman into an intimacy that will satisfy the cravings of her soul.

“Diane Comer captivates the reader as she describes in profound ways her sudden world of silence. Her prose is poetic. In a riveting manner, she tells of her journey from a normal life that heard chirping birds, falling rain, a baby’s coo, and a lover’s whisper to one of silence. She went from hearing laughter among her girl- friends, the singing of her husband, and her child calling “Mom' to a world on mute. Few of us ever think about the reality of absolute deafness, but Diane narrates so powerfully that we enter her soundless world. When she cries, we cry. When she doubts, we doubt. When her faith ignites, our faith ignites. Amazingly, along with her, we hear God in the silence. What did God say? He Speaks in the Silence answers that question. Oh, and find out why, when she regained her hearing through the miracle of science, she daily disconnects to reenter her world of silence.”
