WHEN YOU PRAY

ISBN: 9780857460899 Géneros: HRLD:HRCG9:0 Sinópsis: This book arises from my increasing awareness that the Lords Prayer contains all that Christians really need to know it is the very essence of the Gospel My prayer is that you will have a sense of the great privilege that has been granted to us of holding a precious gem in our hands of being able to delight in its radiance play with its many facets plumb its depths gain a sense of peace and security from its touch and in so doing deepen our awareness of our union with Christ In these Bible readings for Lent and Easter Joanna Collicutt shows how growing as a Christian is rooted in the prayer Jesus gave us As we pray the Lords Prayer we express our relationship with God absorb gospel values and are also motivated to live them out As we pray to the Father in union with the Son through the power of the Spirit so we begin to take on the character of Christ The Holy Week readings encourage us to pause watch and wait at this special season commentary is kept to a minimum and we spend time reflecting in the light of the Lords Prayer on Lukes description of Christs passion and resurrection Includes questions for group discussion which can form the basis of a group study through the weeks of Lent
