Praying the Saviour's WayLet Jesus' Prayer Reshape Your Prayer Life
|
Even in today's post Christian society the Lord's Prayer remains widely known. Its beauty is that it can be understood by a child, but has tremendously profound lessons for those of us who investigate it more deeply. However, our tendency is to allow familiarity to breed complacency. We can repeat the Lord's Prayer verbatim, but do we ponder its message and follow its example?
Originally from Wales, Derek Thomas is the Minister of Preaching and Teaching, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina. Prior to that he was John E. Richards Professor of Systematic and Practical Theology at the Jackson campus of Reformed Theological Seminary. In addition to his work at the seminary, he also served as the Minister of Teaching at First Presbyterian Church in Jackson, Mississippi.
"Professor Thomas has given us an insightful and inspiring look at the Lord's Prayer. The church has always returned to Christ's instruction on prayer to form prayers that are pleasing to God. In our day when new forms of spirituality are appearing all around us, we need to return once again."
Richard Pratt ~ President, Third Millenium Ministries, Orlando, Florida
"Instructive, practical, readable, challenging. Each chapter will make you eager for the next course. Nourishing fare indeed!"
Sinclair B. Ferguson ~ Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina
"The exposition it contains can only thrill and inspire us afresh to make far more use of the extraordinary privilege of coming to God in prayer."
Mark Johnston ~ Senior Pastor, Proclamation Presbyterian Church, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania
There are a few good books available on the Lord's Prayer, but Derek Thomas's treatment is among the best. It reveals a profound spiritual and theological wisdom rarely exhibited among contemporay writers. The section on the will of God is a jewel.
