Praying the Saviour’s Way
Let Jesus’ Prayer Reshape Your Prayer Life
Derek W. H. Thomas
An in–depth look at the Lord’s Prayer
Meditate on and re–discover this beautiful prayer
From a pastor and experienced theologian
Even in today’s post Christian society the Lord’s Prayer remains widely known. Its beauty is that it can be understood by a child, but has tremendously profound lessons for those of us who investigate it more deeply. However, our tendency is to allow familiarity to breed complacency. We can repeat the Lord’s Prayer verbatim, but do we ponder its message and follow its example?

"The exposition it contains can only thrill and inspire us afresh to make far more use of the extraordinary privilege of coming to God in prayer."
Mark Johnston
Minister, Bethel Presbyterian Church, Cardiff, Wales
... This book will be a great blessing to you and certainly help each of us better understand how to obey Christ's instruction "to pray like this." I recommend it heartily.
If you would learn to pray, or strengthen your prayer life, who better to instruct you than Jesus. That is why Praying the Saviour's Way can be such a great help to you. The master model for prayer is clearly explained with helpful application.

"Professor Thomas has given us an insightful and inspiring look at the Lord's Prayer. The church has always returned to Christ's instruction on prayer to form prayers that are pleasing to God. In our day when new forms of spirituality are appearing all around us, we need to return once again."
