The Prayerful Spirit : Passion for God, Compassion for People

Book Description: Faithful. Fervent. Focused. Does that describe your prayer life? In The Prayerful Spirit, Dr. James P. Gills tells us how prayer has changed his life, how it has changed the lives of other doctors and their patients, and how it can change your life. “Prayer is, I believe, the most interesting subject in the universe, and one that produces, strangely, a lot of dull books. Dr. Gills’ book is a compelling statement on a compelling subject. As I read it, I kept thinking, This is good, solid, basic, biblical, interesting. The emphasis on physicians and prayer is especially good. Read it!” -Bill Anderson, Senior Minister, Calvary Baptist Church, Clearwater, Florida “Jim Gills is a beloved friend, a magnificent servant of Christ, and a powerful witness.” -Chuck Colson, Chairman of Prison Fellowship Ministries
