The Power of Prayer

Everyone has heard about the power of prayer, but few of us actually know how to find it. The world's most respected spiritual leaders, politicians, artists, scientists, philosophers and writers, including Jimmy Carter, Rev. Billy Graham, Sue Bender, Brooke Medicine Eagle and Mother Teresa, reflect on the meaning and value as well as the technique of prayer in Dale Salwak's The Power of Prayer.

 

Testimony to the power of prayer comes from every era, every belief system, every walk of life. Often, however, people have never learned how to put prayer to work. This book will help show them the way.

Dale Salwak solicited the thoughts of a wide range of contributors including former president Jimmy Carter, Reverend Billy Graham, Sue Bender, Brooke Medicine Eagle, and Mother Teresa. The result is The Power of Prayer, a compendium of enlightening reflections on the meaning, value, and techniques of prayer. Genuine prayer, say these voices, is not formality, nor a psychological trick, nor obligation, nor wishful thinking. It is communicating with God.
