Prayer: My Soul's Adventure with God: A Spiritual Autobiography by Robert H. Schuller (1995) Hardcover

From a 4-year-old Iowa farm boy's first prayer, ''God, make me a preacher when I grow up,'' to the ministry that comes out of the Crystal Cathedral & the ''Hour of Power'' TV show, life has been a prayer-filled adventure for Schuller.
