邦兹（Edward McKendree Bounds, 1835-1913）
被誉为「祷告战士」的邦兹生於美国密苏里州，其生命深受约翰卫斯理的著作影响。他21岁时成为美国最年轻的律师之一，24岁蒙召成为牧师，於循道会中事奉。在美国内战期间，他因拒绝宣誓效忠联邦政府而於1861年被北部军队逮捕入狱，一年半后获释；1863年，任南部联军军牧。战后，他继续牧养教会，并致力於写作及往各地推动復兴事工，其敬虔及重视祷告的生命，继续影响著歷世歷代的信徒。
什么是导致今天我们心灵乾渴、事奉无力的主因？很多时候，我们会在营营役役的生活中跌倒，会在沉重繁忙的事奉中遗忘了那得力之钥匙─祷告。若不藉着祷告，我们绝对无法攀上灵程的高峰。甚麼是復兴灵命的能力？你要经歷祷告的大能吗？本书定能帮助你更了解祷告的真义。
Power through Prayer has been called "one of the truly great masterpieces on the theme of prayer." The term classic can appropriately be applied to this
outstanding book.
神的道是一本祷告的记录──记载向神祷告的人与他们靠着祷告所成就的荣耀，是祷告的属灵权能，是神赐给祷告者的鼓励与动力。
In this book, Bounds makes a case that prayer is the most important and influential activity that we can ever engage in for the sole reason that
God’s work can’t be undertaken without prevailing, intercessory prayer.Discover how faith, trust, obedience, and other aspects of the Christian life intersect with prayer.
Great men of God in Scripture, such as Paul, Ezra, Moses and Daniel, are the focus as E.M. Bounds demonstrates powerful lessons on the need for effective
prayer. God's desire is for men to be on their knees in full subjection to Him.
