The Lord's prayer - Douglas Connelly

When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray, he gave them the Lord's Prayer. But is the Lord's Prayer simply a form of prayer repeated during Sunday morning worship? If so, we are missing out on a rich resource for our spiritual lives. These 8 studies help us to unpack the Lord's Prayer to give us a better understanding of Jesus' teaching on the subject. Additional texts help the reader go deeper and develop a better understanding of Jesus' teaching on prayer. This revised title features questions for starting group discussions and for meeting God in personal reflection, as well as a 'now or later' section in each of the 8 studies.
