A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Prayer the Greatest Outlet of Power Five Outlets of Power. A great sorrow has come into the heart of God. Let it be told only in hushed voice one of His worlds is a prodigal! Hush your voice yet mox Qours is that prodigal world. Let your voice soften down still more we have consented to the prodigal part of the story. But, in softest tones yet, He has won some of us back with His strong tender love. And now let the voice ring out with great gladness we won ones may be the pathway back to God for the others. That is His earnest desire. That should be our dominant ambition. For that purpose He has endowed us with peculiar power. There is one inlet of power in the life anybodys life any kind of power: just one inlet the Holy Spirit. He is power. He is in every one who opens his door to God. He eagerly enters every open door. He comes in by our invitation and consent. His presence within is the vital thing. But with many of us while He is in, He is not in control: in as guest; not as host.

His first book, Quiet Talks on Power, was published in 1901 by Fleming Revell when he was 42. Three years later he wrote Quiet Talks on Prayer. In 1906 he wrote quiet talk books on service and Jesus.
