Fifty-Seven Words That Change the World

Nowhere is Jesus' brilliance more manifest than in the prayer he taught his disciples to pray, the prayer that has come to be known as the "Lord's Prayer." A mere fifty-seven words in the original Greek, the Lord's Prayer gathers up all of life and brings it before God. In eight stirring meditations, Darrell Johnson shows how the Lord's Prayer sums up the essence of Christian faith and, when prayed in faith, draws us into draws us into the Triune God's work of transforming the world. Darrell W. Johnson is Associate Professor of Pastoral Theology at Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. A popular conference and retreat speaker, he has also served as the preaching pastor for a number of congregations in North America and the Philippines and Adjunct Professor of Preaching for the Doctor of Ministry program at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. His other books include Experiencing the Trinity and Discipleship on the Edge: An Expository Journey through the Book of Revelation.

Nicaieri stralucirea lui Isus nu se manifesta mai mult decat in rugaciunea pe care i-a invatat pe discipolii sai sa se roage, rugaciunea care a ajuns sa fie cunoscuta sub numele de „Rugaciunea Domnului”. Cu doar cincizeci si sapte de cuvinte in limba greaca originala, Rugaciunea Domnului aduna toata viata si o aduce inaintea lui Dumnezeu. In opt meditatii agitate, Darrell Johnson arata cum Rugaciunea Domnului rezuma esenta credintei crestine si, atunci cand este rugat cu credinta, ne atrage in ne atrage in lucrarea lui Dumnezeu Triune de transformare a lumii.
