The Lord’s Prayer

"Don't let the commonness of the title--The Lord's Prayer--fail to hold your attention. Scholars with a warm and humorous touch bring into our conversation the very heart of the Gospel. I love its two-level input: as a guide in devotional prayer, and as a teacher/preacher utilizing its golden insights. Pick up multiple copies, making them special gifts to friends who, like me, need a refresher on what Jesus gave in modeling prayer."

--Brian C. Stiller, Global Ambassador, World Evangelical Alliance



"Traditionally, Christian formation involved memorization of the Lord's Prayer. Mere rote? Hardly. This series of sermons by the Wycliffe College faculty shows how rich and laden the prayer is with Christology and ecclesiology, and from these, with spiritual direction and cultural critique. This short book is highly appropriate for parish adult education or group devotion."

--George Sumner, Episcopal Bishop of Dallas



"In an increasingly complex and fragmented world, The Lord's Prayer takes us back to spiritual ground zero--rooting us in the fundamentals of faith and prayer. Karen Stiller deftly edits various reflections of a well-known and often assumed prayer in such a way that we can engage, interact, and learn. There is a consistency throughout these brief essays that serves the praying person living in an inconsistent world." 

--Barry Parker, Rector, St. Paul's Bloor Street, Toronto
