This book closely examines the Lord’s Prayer. Each part of the prayer is analyzed in light of what Jesus taught His disciples about prayer. The Lord’s Prayer serves as a wonderful example of praying in harmony with God’s will. Although the disciples walked with Jesus daily and witnessed Him heal the sick, perform miracles, multiply food, and turn water into wine, they longed to learn how to pray. In Luke 11:1, they asked Him how to pray, "Lord, teach us to pray.

After enjoying this insightful series of contemplative talks, your experience of the Lord's Prayer will be forever enriched. When asked for a teaching on prayer, Jesus did not respond with a method or technique. Rather, he responded with words that captured the essence of his teaching and lifestyle. Known as the Our Father or the Lord's Prayer, his response is one of the most cherished prayers in the Christian tradition.

JC Ryle states that of all the Christian concepts, the Lord’s Supper might be the most misunderstood. Christ said, "eat, drink: do this in remembrance of me." But Ryle explains that not all of us can be invited to the table and that only those with true faith and a true heart can do so in full understanding of its significance.

Archibald Alexander (1772-1851) was a Presbyterian theologian and professor at the Princeton Theological Seminary. He argued that the decisive argument for the perpetual obligation of the Sabbath is the fourth commandment. He claimed that it was an eternal law in the same league as the moral precepts.

Thomas Watson (c. 1620 - 1686) was an English Puritan preacher and author. The Lord's Prayer is the third volume in his series of books explaining the tenets of the Christian faith, the first being The 10 Commandments and the second The Apostle's Creed. Watson provides a lengthy and in-depth exposition of each concept or verse of the familiar prayer from Matthew 6. This is a valuable reference for Christians who wish to improve their prayer lives, as Watson derives deep layers of meaning from the simple words of the prayer.

The garden is possibly one of the most significant symbols in the Bible. Christ calls all of his believers, his "Garden". J.C. Ryle explains that true believers are a garden because they are not part of the wilderness, not part of the world, but rather of a safe space enclosed in purity.

Arthur W. Pink gets right to the point in this brief but beneficial book. To pray correctly, Christians need clarity, and this book delivers. Pink said it well: “We need something better than that which is of mere human origin to guide us if we are to perform aright this essential duty.” This book assists the modern disciple to better understand the Lord’s Prayer taught to those first disciples long ago.

Thomas Lupich is the Preceptor of the International Society of Seekers of the Truth, a retired electrical designer from Princeton University's Plasma Physics Laboratory, and a taiji instructor with an interest in science and health. His major interest is Biblical truth. He, therefore, considers himself a truth seeker: an avocation that he recommends to all men. Jesus commanded his disciples to become seekers of the truth and Thomas Lupich took him at his word.

How can we know God’s will if we don’t pray His prayer? After listening to this book, you will understand the intricacies of the Lord’s Prayer and how it was designed to powerfully affect your relationship with the heavenly Father.

From the very beginning, the Lord's Supper has stood at the heart of Christian worship. If Jesus lives in us, and the Holy Spirit is poured out on us, why do we need to eat bread and drink grape juice or wine? Does it really matter? It does matter—and it's life-changing, says leading Pentecostal theologian Jonathan Black. With warmth and depth, he explores not only how the table is still a powerful place of transformation and encounter with Jesus, but also how we can experience Christ's promise of presence, glory, healing, forgiveness, victory, and intimacy.

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, placed on a mantel. 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, 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.

As Jesus was celebrating his final Passover meal, he made some bold statements. First, he took the bread and said, "This is my body." Then he took the cup, saying, "This is my blood." Next, he commanded the disciples to eat and drink in remembrance of him. What did Jesus mean? Do the bread and wine literally become his body and blood? What happens when Christians take the Lord’s Supper?

Communion is an ordinance that most Christians partake of, either occasionally or regularly. The Lord ’s Table means so much to us as believers; however, taking communion with understanding will produce better results. This book will look in detail at the significance of the cup and at the phrase, “This cup is the new testament in my blood.” It will leave the listener with a great appreciation of the communion table and how to approach this precious ordinance with better understanding.

Christians know the importance of prayer, but the act of praying can be a real challenge. Some have the desire, but not always the will; others worry they don't do it well. Books about prayer usually emphasize spiritual discipline, but that can foster more guilt than reassurance. So how can Christians improve their prayer life, embracing the privilege of communicating with God? In The Lord's Prayer, Kevin DeYoung closely examines Christ's model for prayer, giving listeners a deeper understanding of its content and meaning, and how it works in the lives of God's people.

Christians serving the Lord can fall into two traps: depending too heavily on their own power or underestimating their God-given purpose. In this collection of classic sermons, renowned theologian and philosopher Francis A. Schaeffer teaches believers how to rely on the Holy Spirit—not personal effort or status—in matters of service and leadership. This short audiobook includes an excerpt from Schaeffer's sermon, "The Lord's Work in the Lord's Way," plus 2 sermons from the book No Little People.

There is safety in the presence of God. We must remember that no matter what we go through, we can run to God to heal and deliver us. Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Wright shares a dynamic sermon entitled "In the Lord’s House on the Lord’s Day".

Why did Jesus give the church a meal to eat together? The Lord's Supper isn't just something churches do together, it's something that binds us together, making many into one. This accessible work biblically explains what the Lord's Supper is, how it relates to a local church's life together, who should celebrate the Lord's Supper, and how we should approach it.

What is the meaning of the Lord’s Supper? Jesus instituted the Supper to strengthen the faith of his followers by reminding them of his promises. More than an ancient church tradition or a complex doctrinal controversy, it has practical importance in the lives of Christians today. God has always made promises to his people through covenants, and along with them given signs and meals to point to and confirm his blessings. In this book, professor Guy Prentiss Waters defines and explores the unity of the covenants in the Old and New Testaments.

Is Lord's Day observance simply a quaint tradition that was nice for previous generations but really isn't relevant for Christians today? Isn't the Sabbath just part of the Old Testament law that New Testament believers don't need to be concerned about? In this pamphlet, author Joseph Pipa carefully guides you through the Scriptures, answering frequently asked questions about the Lord's Day along the way, and helps you to see that the Lord's Day is for you not as a burden, but as a blessing that will lead you to delight in God as you are freed from work and worldly pleasures to worship Him.

A deep, inspiring, and often challenging study of the Lord Jesus Christ's miracles and parables. Men who were led by the hand or groped their way along the wall to reach Jesus were touched by his finger and went home without a guide, rejoicing that Jesus Christ had opened their eyes. Jesus is still able to perform such miracles. And, with the power of the Holy Spirit, his word will be expounded and we’ll watch for the signs to follow, expecting to see them at once.
