From north of the Arctic Circle to South America, to Asia and Africa, communities and nations are being changed in ways never before thought possible. There are reports of improved agricultural production and better economies. Crime rates have plunged. Drug and alcohol use is lower and rates of teen suicide have also fallen. Political reform is taking place.
Church attendance is on the rise, as is racial and social reconciliation.
And the list of transformations goes on. George Otis Jr., author and founder of Sentinel Ministries International, has been monitoring such transformations. He describes it more specifically as fervent united prayer. United prayer is not always unanimous prayer, says Otis. United prayer is beginning to grow in Edmonton.
