Praying with Jesus : Getting to the Heart of the Lord's Prayer

In Praying with Jesus, Adriel Sanchez explores the most famous prayer in history, the Lord's Prayer, and gets to the heart of each thing Jesus told his disciples to pray for. Using the Lord’s Prayer as a framework, he unlocks the mystery of prayer, helping readers understand what prayer is, how to navigate the challenges of prayer, and how to form a habit of prayer. Sanchez points the way to how the Lord’s Prayer helps us better grasp the essential truth that we are not meant to try to navigate life in our own strength and wisdom. Sanchez considers some of the reasons behind an inconsistent prayer life and helps cultivate a consistent habit of prayer, guiding readers into union with Christ that is only possible through the daily practice of praying with Jesus. Readers will learn that the daily practice of praying based on the Lord’s Prayer transforms them—giving them insight into God’s purposes, bringing the presence of God into lives, and helping to unearth treasures of grace. Each chapter ends with a prayer from the past, so readers can pray along with our family in Christ throughout the ages.
