The Lord's Prayer: A Guide to Praying to Our Father by Wesley Hill

adamrshields's review

4.0

I may come back to this and write some more later. I have a class on the Lord's Prayer in two weeks and I had been wanting to read this book so I picked it up for some pre-class reading.

I have read this and NT Wright's short book on the Lord's Prayer and I am currently Leonardo Boff's book as well (later two were assigned). I think that I like Hill's is a good straight forward explication and I think better on the whole than Wright's, although they are doing different things. Both would make good small group discussions.

I have a bunch of short quotes saved here https://www.goodreads.com/notes/50374875-the-lord-s-prayer/1844266-adam-shields?ref=bsop

I read this little book over the course of a week as I preached through the Lord's Prayer (although in Luke's Gospel, leading to some changes!) and this was a helpful little book in thinking through some of the non-technical aspects of the prayer, turning it into a sermon, or considering it for part of your prayer life.

This book TRANSFORMED the way I think about and approach prayer. The author did such an amazing job deconstructing the Lord’s Prayer giving us detail reason as to why each line in the Lord’s Prayer is important. 10/10 recommend
