Publisher's Synopsis
""Prayer as a Force"" by A. Maude Royden is a book that explores the power of prayer in our daily lives. The author argues that prayer is not just a passive act of asking for divine intervention, but an active force that can transform our thoughts, actions, and the world around us. Royden draws on her own experiences as a Christian minister and activist to show how prayer can be used to effect positive change in society. She discusses the importance of prayer in times of crisis, such as war and natural disasters, but also emphasizes its relevance in everyday life. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of prayer, such as the nature of prayer, the role of faith, and the importance of persistence. Royden also explores the relationship between prayer and other spiritual practices, such as meditation and contemplation. Overall, ""Prayer as a Force"" is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that encourages readers to embrace prayer as a powerful tool for personal and social transformation. It is suitable for anyone interested in spirituality, religion, or self-improvement.1923. A collection of ten addresses delivered at the Kensington Town Hall and Eccleston Guildhouse.
