Lord And His Prayer - new edition by NT Wright

THE LORD AND HIS PRAYER

By looking in detail at the Lord's Prayer and its background, Tom Wright offers a really fresh and helpful way of looking at Jesus.

With his vast knowledge of the historical background, the author clarifies many things for the ordinary reader which help to broaden our understanding of the world of Jesus' time. By this means, we gain a fuller, richer view of the meaning of the prayer and of Jesus. The historical and the contemplative approaches are often viewed as being in opposition: Tom Wright's approach instead brings each to illuminate the other.

Phrase by phrase, he demonstrates how understanding the prayer in its original setting can be the starting point for a rekindling of Christian spirituality and the life of prayer.

This small masterpiece of a book contains a great deal to stimulate the refresh both the mind and the heart- and to show that, properly understood, they belong together.
