This is one of the best compilations I have ever done on prayer and has been used throughout the world. This handout can be easily used with non-members because it uses a few quotes carefully screened from non-members such as E. M Bounds (wrote many books on prayer), Andrew Murray (his book With Christ in the School of Prayer is one of the most helpful ever written), etc. It also has many many quotations from Sister White but these are identified with the book reference.
