The Efficacy of Prayer: The Donnellan Lectures for 1877, by John Hewitt Jellett, explores the philosophical and theological dimensions of prayer. Jellett delves into the question of how prayer functions within a world governed by natural laws. He examines the relationship between divine will and human agency, considering the implications of prayer for both personal faith and broader theological understanding.
Based on the Donnellan Lectures, this volume offers a rigorous examination of prayer's efficacy, probing the intellectual challenges and spiritual possibilities inherent in the act of supplication. Jellett's work provides valuable insights into the ongoing dialogue between religion and science, making it a compelling read for those interested in the intersection of faith and reason.
