Reviews

This book is a collection of sermons on the Lord's Prayer by well-known preachers in the latter part of the 19th century and the first part of the 20th century. Many of these preachers were masters of the English language, and I loved their imagery and their insights into this Scripture. For example, to quote from John Daniel Jones sermon on "forgive us our sins": "Just as snow descends from heaven and hides all the grime and filth of earth underneath its mantle until the whole surface is one pure glistening white, so God will let His mercy cover us. He will clothe us in righteousness until every stain is covered and we stand forth whiter than snow."
