In the same way God used Derek's life, be inspired by this book and allow God to use your surrendered life to draw more meaning and purpose from it than you can possibly imagine.

"I am so in awe of the power of God that worked in Derek Prince's life, how His leading brought about change in world events through Derek's prayers and obedience and ushered in a fresh awakening in the
lives of so many people." Phil Keaggy, Musician and Recording Artist
Derek Prince was regarded as one of the leading teachers in the Charismatic Renewal, but his life for many years was about a lonely man searching for truth. Stephen Mansfield traces Derek's extraordinary story from his birth in India, a difficult childhood, his years as a philosopher and atheist at Cambridge University, his conversion while serving in the British army during World War II, his marriage to a woman twice his age, fathering nine adopted daughters and the miraculous interventions by God that led to his worldwide ministry.
Derek Prince—A Biography is as gritty a book as you will ever read about a religious figure. You will be inspired to practise the lessons God had pressed into Derek's life: the discipline of fasting, the power of Scripture, the necessity of thanksgiving, the impact of prayer and the leadership of the Holy Spirit.
"People who know Derek's story will be delightfully surprised and people who don't know Derek are going to find an inspiring, honest story about hunger for God," says Stephen Mansfield who was with Derek Prince days before he died in September 2003.

Stephen Mansfield tells us that he had "nearly grown up to the sound of Derek Prince's voice" as his mother had listened to Derek's teaching tapes while she worked in the home, preparing the family evening meal or folding laundry.
He writes:
"He is gone now and he is missed. His unique brand of biblical wisdom and insight is desperately needed in our time. Yet perhaps because of this retelling of his story and the devoted labours of those who now extend his legacy, it may be that the life of Derek Prince has yet to have its greatest impact in this world. This is as he would have wanted it to be, for he always knew that his life was not intended as a monument for future generations to admire but as a well from which future generations could drink."
A former pastor, Stephen is now a best-selling author, speaker and director of a research and publishing company. His books include: Never Give In: The Extraordinary Character of Winston Churchill, Pope Benedict XVI: His Life and Mission, The Faith of George W. Bush, The Faith of the American Soldier and Then Darkness Fled: The Liberating Wisdom of Booker T Washington.
