Prayer really works! In this book doctors and patients quote scientific surveys and relate personal experiences of healing through prayer. They are convinced that prayer has had a profound effect in their lives. Although they do not try to explain how prayer works, many refer to a greater power - some say God - who enables the healing work of prayer. These interviews and stories will provide new conviction to people of all religious faiths, and will give new hope to those who seek healing for themselves, for others, and for the world.
