Original title: Preacher and Prayer. New, updated and annotated edition.
"What the church needs today is not more and better machinery, not new organizations or more innovative methods, but men whom the Holy Spirit can use โ men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Spirit does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not show up on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men โ men of prayer." โ E. M. Bounds
