• In 1746, a large French fleet approached New England to attack Boston and other coastal towns. Amazingly, a group of Massachusetts colonists destroyed the armada—without firing a shot.
• During World War II, a surprise attack by the German Army nearly decimated Allied Forces. A fierce winter storm had grounded American planes; then, seventy-one words from a commanding General changed the weather and the course of the battle.
• The last words of faith by a twenty-one-year-old American soldier facing execution by the British alters the course of the Revolutionary War.
• Within the stockade walls of Andersonville Prison Camp, where over one hundred soldiers are dying daily from thirst, deprivation, and disease, a lone private decides to act. The miracle that follows saves thousands of lives.
• After the Civil War, a Union General sets out to write a book dispelling Christ's divinity; but before it is released, a revelation changes his course.

And Then They Prayed reveals the true stories of incredible events in America's history that were altered or influenced through the awesome power of prayer. From the forests of Valley Forge to the deadly vacuum of space, men have turned to God and witnessed the results of His mighty Hand.
