Synopsis

For over thirty years now I have believed that the main purpose of the Lord's Prayer was not give to us as a prayer to be quoted daily or weekly. I also do not believe the main purpose was to serve as a model prayer. Although both these terms are used in this writing because the reader knows exactly what is meant by the use of these terms. This book in no way demeans anyone's use of the Lord's Prayer. My previous congregation quoted it weekly and my current congregation quotes it weekly. The aim of this book is to encourage the reader to look at the Lord's Prayer from a new perspective and, when finished reading, think, "That's a possibility. I'm going to think about that some more." Let's think about this together, shall we?

About the Author

About the Author I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1946, and lived there for three months after which my family moved to Decoy (Knott County) in eastern Kentucky. In 1951 we moved to Harper (Magoffin County) where I began school in a one room schoolhouse. It was in the two communities of Decoy and Harper where I spent the first ten years of my life and where I have many fond memories of life-and church life. After moving to Greenville (Muhlenberg County) in 1978, I have served as Minister of Music at Second Baptist Church; Associate Pastor at Calhoun Baptist Church, Calhoun (McLean County); Pastor of First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Greenville; and currently am serving as Pastor of Graham Presbyterian Church (USA), Graham.
