Bowing down

On Friday evening, the doorbell rings. It's our upstairs neighbor Remon, a hardened hooligan of football club Feyenoord Rotterdam. As he enters, he gets straight to the point: 'I've been lying awake for three months with life questions. I keep thinking about Jesus.'

In this book, Ruben de Jong shares with you a series of very special events. He prayed boldly and persistently that his neighbor wouldn't be able to sleep at night until he found Jesus. The neighbor eventually comes to faith in Jesus Christ. After that, more men and women follow.

In Luke 11, Jesus Himself encourages His disciples to be shameless in prayer. Let your heart be warmed by the story of an 'ordinary' Christian who decides to start praying. Let your knees realize that much can happen in your surroundings if you are willing to BOW.
