Book Description
Many books have been published on the Lords Prayer which help us to understand each phrase more clearly. This new book seeks to help us to use the Lords Prayer in one of the ways that Jesus clearly intended - as a pattern. It contains short chapters of each aspect of the three main sections of the Lords Prayer and then provides material to help people develop this pattern in their own daily prayer.
From the Inside Flap
The Lords Prayer is the best known prayer of all time, but its very familiarity may be its downfall. We get so used to saying it that it can easily trip off the tongue without a further thought.
Jesus did not intend these words to be used just as a prayer. He also gave them as a pattern for prayer. Used in this way they offer a liberating structure around which our own prayer can develop.
This book is not another exposition of the Lords Prayer, but a practical resource to help you develop your own prayer based on the pattern that Jesus has given us. It is full of scriptures, hymns, songs, prayers - and space! Room for you to write down words that help you in your time with God
