Synopsis

"The name of E. M. Bounds is familiar to anyone who has an interest in prayer. In a world awash in books that jam the isles of bookstores everywhere, few will even begin to survive the lifetime of the authors, but that is not true of E. M. Bounds. After a century, many of his books are still in print. Their long life is a testimony to the timelessness of the prayer lessons he learned from his own deep Christian spirituality. // In view of the popularity of E. M. Bounds writings, it seems incredible that so little about him has been published. To remedy that amazing state of affairs, Lyle W. Dorsett has read every scrap of paper related to Bounds, and the family has made available for the first time a private collection of the Bounds correspondence. From that, Dorsett wrote this account of Bounds' life.

Goodreads review by Amanda on September 03, 2016

I was hoping this book would share about how he prayed. It was much more just about his life and more of a biography. Very short read, sharing how much he valued prayer and made it a huge part of his life.......more

Goodreads review by Carol on October 26, 2023

Mr. Bounds wrote what I consider to be the best book on prayer that I have ever read, The Complete E.M. Bounds on Prayer. This is a compilation of all the smaller books that he had written. When I ran across this little book on Audible, it was a must read for me. The author did a good job of present......more
