In 1999, a small town on the south coast of England became the birthplace of the remarkable, accidental, international movement known as 24-7 Prayer.

Their inspiration was a seemingly chance visit by founder Pete Greig to Herrnhut in Germany, where in the eighteenth-century Count Nikolaus von Zinzendorf had initiated the Moravian prayer watch which ran without ceasing for a hundred years.

Five years later, Phil Anderson undertakes an aerial road trip on a tiny 4-seat aeroplane from England to Germany, a remarkable journey to uncover the history of Zinzendorf and the movement he led. Part history, part narrative, The Lord of the Ring takes readers on a fascinating journey back to the 18th century Moravian renewal movement and 100-year prayer watch. Anderson retraces the steps of Zinzendorf, reconnects with his legacy and seeks to apply it to life and faith in a new millennium.

Learning from the past, readers will discover crucial signposts for grappling with the Church of today's identity and calling as an authentic, relational, missional community.
