5.0 out of 5 stars ENLIGHTENING!!!, May 1, 2003

By	Heather Marshall Negahdar "SUGAR-CANE" (Bridgetown, Barbados) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Great House Of God (Paperback)

I could have finished this book a good while now, but it was a book that I enjoyed reading at a fairly slow pace. There is quite a lot to grasp and understand as Max Lucado walks us through The Lord's Prayer, and through the House of God starting at the living room, through to the kitchen, and finally the chapel.

This prayer which is said by millions all around the world every day, is sometimes said in ritual style with the deepness of it taken for granted, though not intentionally. But Mr. Lucado uses Our Lord's Prayer as a floor plan of the House of God, with a step by step description of how God meets our needs when we dwell in him, and how we can live our lives completely in God's favour as we obey this great Prayer.

As Christians with our sins forgiven which Jesus paid in full on the Cross, we must act accordingly as the prayer directs us. Not wanting to give too much away let me encourage you to read this book soon and cherish the lovely way it is written. It has truly blessed my heart and I know it will yours too. Mr. Lucado.....thank you once again for the wonderful revelations of this book. I pray that God will continue to bless you and your family, and of course your literary work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing the Lord's Prayer, December 13, 2002

By	audrey72 (Boulder, CO USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Great House Of God (Paperback)

This book takes a fresh look at the Lord's Prayer. This is a piece of the Bible that I've read many times, but I never looked at it this way. Each chapter is dedicated to a line of the prayer and how that line describes a room in God's house or how the line refers to the personal relationship God has with us. The author makes the sometimes antiquated words apply to people's everyday lives. Most of the author's examples refer to his family/children. Even though I wasn't able to relate directly, I still enjoyed reading his narrative and was able to understand his points. This book reads like a sermon in parts: Bible verse, relevant point, anecdote, back to the point/verse, and repeat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Max Lucado is an excellent christian writer., June 20, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Great House Of God: A Home for Your Heart (Hardcover)

Max Lucado is possibly the best christian author I have ever read. He takes bible stories and breaks it down so it is easier to understand. The Great House of God is about the Lord's Prayer and all the names given to our heavenly Father and this book helped me see things in the Lord's prayer that I have never saw before and I didn't realize all the different names the Bible has for God. It is an great book I highly recommend this book. It is the type of book you read and will want to share with others, but yet you hate to let go of your copy because this is a book that you will want to read over and over. If you buy this book I don't think you will be disappointed.
