Description:
Is intercessory — the action of intervening on behalf of another — prayer of any real value? Is it merely something that middle-aged and older Christians do at midweek prayer meetings?
Where do young, modern Christians fit into the picture?
Dr. Townsend found herself face to face with the question of the value of intercessory prayer after the death of a friend for whom she had meant to pray–but had forgotten to do so.
Does an omnipotent God really need our prayers? Can we twist God’s arm by praying, and make Him change His mind? This is not a book of pat answers and pious exhortations.
The author shares how she struggled with and resolved her own doubts in a heart-searching and concept-changing way.
