Purchase options and add-ons
Most Christians know the Lord’s Prayer by heart. We pray it often, at different times and in different settings. We remember it as the prayer that Jesus taught his disciples. But do we really understand and appreciate the meaning and power of its words, what we ask of God each time we pray it?
When the disciples asked Jesus how to pray, Jesus gave them this prayer. He likely taught it to his followers often, not just one time. He never intended the Lord’s Prayer to be a museum piece, framed and placed on a mantel or in a display case. It was Jesus teaching God’s people, through his disciples, how to pray.
In The Lord’s Prayer: The Meaning and Power of the Prayer Jesus Taught, pastor and bestselling author Adam Hamilton guides us to really know―and really pray―the Lord’s Prayer. He explores each of its rich lines and their meaning in the Bible, illuminating what we ask of God and what we ask of ourselves through its words. And he teaches us how to use it as a pattern for our own prayer life.
Additional components for a six-week study include a DVD featuring Adam Hamilton and a comprehensive Leader Guide.

Walter BrueggemannIn this book Adam Hamilton continues his passionate pastoral exposition of faith. As in his previous work, this book is attentive to the text, wise concerning the human condition, and accessible for any serious reader. Like every good preacher, Hamilton’s work teems with suggestive anecdotes that function to connect the world of the text and the life of the reader. In this book Hamilton is doing important work for us whereby Jesus can “teach us to pray.” Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary |
Missy BuchananIt would be easy to dismiss a book on the Lord’s Prayer. We’ve recited it so many times that its familiar words often leave us empty. In this new book, Adam Hamilton boldly wakes us from the slumber of monotony. He shakes up our understanding of familiar passages, shifts our perspective and invites us to experience the Lord’s Prayer as more than a model of how to pray. It is a model of how to live. Missy Buchanan, author-speaker on issues of aging faithfully, author of From Dry Bones to Living Hope: Embracing God’s Faithfulness in Late Life |
Will Willimon“Lord, teach us to pray.” Jesus loves us enough to teach us the words for conversation with God. And we could have no better teacher than Adam Hamilton to reinvigorate our praying of the Lord’s Prayer. In this wonderful book, wordsmith Adam utilizes his impressive communicative skills to help us more boldly to pray as Jesus taught us. Insights abound. Read alone or in groups, Adam’s book shows us the way to obey Jesus’ teaching, “When you pray, say….” Will Willimon, Professor of the Practice of Christian Ministry, Duke Divinity School, United Methodist Bishop, retired, author, with Stanley Hauerwas of Lord Teach Us: The Lord’s Prayer and the Christian Life |
