The Lord's Prayer

The Lord's Prayer, Line by Line: What Jesus Taught Us to Pray

When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray, He did not hand them a technique. He handed them these words. It is the most prayed prayer on earth, and often the most rushed, said so many times that its lines slip by unfelt. Here we slow down and open one phrase at a time: Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, give us this day our daily bread, forgive us our debts, lead us not into temptation, for thine is the kingdom. Each page listens to what Jesus is teaching, shows how to pray the line today, and follows it to Christ Himself, in whom every petition finds its answer.
