## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic Sproul
*by S***N on May 4, 2025*

So good. It’s like you are sitting listening to him in a private teaching session

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read the Appendix first
*by J***D on October 1, 2019*

Other reviews have already covered well the basic contents of this book, and why it’s a good read. So I’ll try to add something more to those other reviews.Dr. Sproul touches on the fundamental dilemma of the Power of God versus Free Will, and (in the first 10 chapters) seems to side with the former, which leaves the reader asking, “well, if God has it all figured out, then why pray at all?” And actually, Dr. Sproul answers this question in the Appendix (to the effect that prayer can, on occasion, change outcomes). To his credit, in the Appendix Dr. Sproul seems to acknowledge that his profound faith in God’s universal design cannot be reconciled with the fact that sometimes prayer can affect outcome. While Dr. Sproul indicates that there are “many, many [examples] that clearly show that prayer does achieve things” (pg 116), the examples he provides are mostly scriptural. However, one example of which I recently became aware is the case of Barbara Cummiskey Snyder, who was miraculously cured of multiple sclerosis due to the apparent power of community prayer in 1981 (this can be verified by internet searching). So, yes, prayer still works in the modern era.Personally, I think the Appendix of this book ought to become a Preface. At any rate, I would suggest reading the Appendix first, as this may remove the issue (i.e., re the power of prayer) from the reader’s mind, which can otherwise become a distracting background nuisance when reading the book.Another “plus” for this book is that Dr. Sproul addresses where translation of the original Greek texts of the Gospels into English leaves The Lord’s Prayer somewhat lacking – specifically, “will” (pg. 54), and “evil” (pgs. 89-90). This kind of linguistic analysis is helpful, and takes the book beyond merely being the author telling us how he personally interprets the meaning of these potentially ambiguous English words.The author is to be commended for a well developed analytical approach (sans speculation) to interpreting the meaning of the Lord’s Prayer, and for avoiding side issues for which there are no real answers (e.g., “to be effective, does prayer have to be verbal, or will mental thought alone do the job?”)Finally, this is the rare book where, after reading it, I did not feel compelled to purchase more books on the subject (sorry, Amazon). Basically, the book answered all of my questions as to: (i) an analysis of the meaning of The Lord’s Prayer; (ii) how to pray; (iii) what to pray for; and (iv) the significance and power of prayer. At a mere 122 pages of primary text, this book gets the job done.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A concrete investigation into the model of prayer given by Jesus.
*by D***L on December 25, 2015*

Prayer is one of the bedrocks of the Christian faith because it is the transformative medium through which believers communicate and fellowship with God. Yet, prayer cannot be done “any old way” because it is a dialogue with a Holy and Omnipotent Creator. The question then becomes: Is there a map one can follow on how to pray? The answer is yes and it is found in the blueprint Jesus gave to His disciples, The Lord’s Prayer.The Prayer of the Lord explains the “prayer map” and guides the reader on how to navigate that map.The book proceeds through a line-by-line analysis of The Lord’s Prayer. Sproul explains what Jesus told His disciples to pray, why He told them specific items, and what this means for us on how to pray. Additionally from Biblical, theological, sociological and historical perspectives, he extrapolates profound understanding and its subsequent implications for contemporary life.The Prayer of the Lord equips the reader with a tool belt of teachable principles that can then be applied to anyone’s prayer life. Furthermore, the author often makes some short detours to explain some of the more complex issues that arise with understanding principles such as how not to pray, temptation and sin, and what making the unseen kingdom of God seen really means. If you haven’t read some of R.C. Sproul’s other books, you will be treated to some short expositions on discerning God’s will and what it means to pray to an unchanging Lord.This book will help any curious mind to better understand one of the foundations of the Christian faith (prayer) using The Lord’s Prayer as a prime example. It goes without saying that anyone involved in Christian education, preachers and ministers will discover tremendous value in this book. The book is short and written in clear, plain language so I presume that even younger believers will not think this text to be “over their head.”Reading The Prayer of the Lord will forever change your prayer life and in turn bring you closer to God.
