Description

Methodist minister and Civil War chaplain Edward McKendree Bounds (1835 1913) considered conversation with God as fundamentally vital to the Christian s life as physical breath. He devoted the last 17 years of his life to intense intercession and to penning some of the most perennially popular works about prayer. This attractive volume features the very best of his beloved writings. God shapes the world by prayer. Prayers are deathless. The lips that uttered them may be closed in death, the heart that felt them may have ceased to beat, but the prayers live before God, and God s heart is set on them and prayers outlive the lives of those who uttered them; they outlive a generation, outlive an age, outlive a world. from E.M.

Excellent set of three books on prayer...guaranteed to pierce the conscience. Unfortunately, the author overemphasizes prayer a bit (sees all other aspects of faith through prayer, which could be done with almost any attribute of faith), and is perhaps a bit too judgmental of those who need growth
