Short and sweet, this exposition of the Lord's Prayer has refreshed me devotionally, helped me pause as I've prayed such well known words, and spurred my own general sense of prayerfulness.

Most people who grew up in church are familiar with the Lord’s Prayer, but it has become rote and devoid of meaning. Mohler takes great care to explain, clearly and concisely, what exactly we are praying as we pray each part of this prayer. Throughout the prayer, we destroy any semblance of our own selfish kingdom or autonomy, bowing to the will and glorious rule of our Father. Prayer has diminished in our society as people have become more self-reliant (I speak from personal experience). This prayer IS a revolutionary manifesto because it places our reliance in its proper source. I highly recommend this book.

Excellent short book, full of solid teaching on the Lord's Prayer. This would be perfect for a Bible study. I would have read this much more quickly but it's great (maybe better?) in small bite size pieces to ponder over. It's always good to have yet more reminders about how revolutionary Jesus's teachings were and are.

Oh yeah, I have this book because my brother is a student at the seminary where Mohler Jr is currently the president. At that school they tend to teach the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter rather than picking by theme or inspirational topic and you can see that approach strongly in this lecture-in-book-form.
