Becoming Jesus' Prayer invites readers to take a new look at the Lord's Prayer-words so familiar to Christians, yet often muttered without thinking. Each chapter features a story, theological reflection, discussion questions, guidelines for weekly prayer at home and corporate prayer, and hymn suggestions. It also includes a leader's guide, seven sessions for groups, five appendices that include the Lord's Prayer in hymn-as litany and music-a Lord's prayer bibliography, and a prayer bibliography. Can be used in individual or group settings.
