The Prayer God Answers

Rediscover the kind of prayer that has the power to transform our lives and our world.

"Eberhard Arnold's essay was first published in German in 1913 as "Die eUbermacht des Gebetslebens" in Lebensbeweise lebendiger Gemeinden and revised by the author in 1929. Translated into English by Eileen Robertshaw, Winifred Hildel, and Miriam Mathis; revised and modernized by Charles E. Moore.Why has God not answered my prayers? What should I be praying for? If everything I prayed for came true, would I be ready? In this spiritual classic, Eberhard Arnold mines the riches of biblical teaching on prayer and the example of Jesus, the Hebrew prophets, and the early Christians to point us back to the prayer that pleases God most – prayer that has the power to transform our lives and our world. In a new reflective response, much-loved author Richard J. Foster relates Arnold’s words to our contemporary reality.
