DESCRIPTION:
"The Senate Prayers of Peter Marshall" according to Carol Ann. I would recommend this book to everyone to read. I read it quite some time ago and still remember how very touching this book was. He was a remarkable speaker and writer.. Amazon Customer said Four Stars. It was very successsful used at a veterans ceremony.. Pleased Customer said Five Stars. So happy to find this!
Senators found him so helpful that they soon adopted him as their own "pastor." Peter died suddenly in January 1949, shortly after the start of the 81st Congress, stunning the Senate and the country.. He was offered the position of Chaplain to the Senate in 1947 and accepted despite the political overtones that he recognized. Peter Marshall is remembered as one of the most effective and inspiring communicators of Christian thought in this century. Within a few weeks, his eloquence and obvious grasp of the problems and topics of the day had newspapers and magazines quoting his prayers. His prayers are extolled for their eloquence and their ability to reach people of all walks of life, who seek truth, freedom, justice, morality, faith and immorality. This was the famous 80th Congress, the first Republican Senate in almost two decades
