| He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving
glory to God.
Romans 4:20
"A Welsh miner who became a spiritual giant. Here is the inspiring biography for all who would seek to do exploits for God. Well written in graphic language,it will inspire both old and young."
Rees Howells was a man of little worldly fame, yet through Norman
Grubb's best-selling biography, his life story is known to millions.
Born in a Welsh mining village, he left school at twelve and worked in
a tin mill and a coal mine. As he came to know the redeeming power of
his Lord and Saviour he faced the implications of an entire surrender,
learned to love the unlovely and found the key to the power of prayer.
As a result he became a man of great Christian inspiration to others in
both Britain and Southern Africa where he became the channel of a
mighty revival.
Norman Grubb describes all this, but also the foundation of the
Bible College of Wales at Swansea, perhaps the greatest monument of his
work, and the intercessory prayer that became the hallmark of Rees
Howells, impacting as it did on national policy and international
affairs.
Rees Howells' life was so great that the Church of Christ still
feels the impact of his truths of the Spirit and the Scriptures in a
unique and amazing way. Every chapter in this biography is full of
drama and light. Rees Howells, Intercessor is an enthralling story, told with simplicity, humanity and humour, and it has proved an inspiration for nearly half a century.
