Reflections on the Lord's Prayer

Reflections on the Lord’s Prayer presents the best-known prayer among Christians as the ultimate prayer model. From Martin Luther’s reflection on why the prayer opens with “Our Father . . . ” to the acknowledgment of God’s “… power and glory forever,” readers move phrase-by-phrase through this inspiring prayer reading what others have said about the love, reverence, gratitude, and awe that God wants at the heart of all prayer. Insights and thoughts culled from a variety of respected writers enhance our understanding of the prayer, and carefully chosen passages of Scripture help confirm and underscore the relevance of each phrase—and the prayer as a whole—in our daily lives.Presented in a friendly format that’s easy to read, Reflections on the Lord’s Prayer makes a beautiful gift that will appeal to everyone who wants to deepen their knowledge of this wonderfully moving model for prayer.
