The Possibilities of Prayer

Edward M. Bounds · 2015
80/100
👍 Worth It

E. M. Bounds spent his life waking before dawn to pray, and that discipline saturates every page of this book — it reads less like theology and more like a man reporting back from somewhere real. Over a century of continuous publication is the kind of track record that marketing cannot manufacture. The 19th-century prose requires a little patience, but the substance underneath rewards it.
