- Summary:
- Some people believe that prayer is simply a human
invention, with no true substance. Not so, argues Edward Bounds in his
powerful book The Reality of Prayer. There is a spiritual
reality to prayer, he urges. Prayer brings us closer to God--both through God's
answering of our prayers, and through our own character being changed by
prayer. Bounds reinforces these points in the second half of his book,
where he discusses Christ as both a teacher of prayer and as an example
of prayer. Finally, Bounds ends his encouraging and enlightening
discussion by explaining the role of the Holy Spirit in prayer. This
interesting treatise attests to the true reality and power of
prayer--another classic from Edward Bounds.
