"Our Father, who art in heaven...."
The opening words of the Lord's Prayer have become so familiar that we often speak them without a thought, sometimes without any awareness that we are speaking at all. But to the disciples who first heard these words from Jesus, the prayer was a thunderbolt, a radical new way to pray that changed them and the course of history.
Far from a safe series of comforting words, the Lord's Prayer makes extraordinary claims, topples every earthly power, and announces God's reign over all things in heaven and on earth. In this groundbreaking new book, R. Albert Mohler Jr. recaptures the urgency and transformational nature of the prayer, revealing once again its remarkable, world-upending power. Step by step, phrase by phrase, The Prayer That Turns the World Upside Down explains what these words mean and how we are to pray them.
The Lord's Prayer is the most powerful prayer in the Bible, taught by Jesus to those closest to him. We desperately need to relearn its power and practice. The Prayer That Turns the World Upside Down shows us how.

In the context of the day, I've heard that addressing God as Father wasn't done. The Father's son Jesus really ordains those in the Body of Christ to partake in the Family of Christ, adopted if you will, as children of God, all in the first few words "Our Father..." I realize that is a lot to assert, but what would the common untrained believer think back then? They would say, "Oh! We can say "Our Father", we are his Children!" and then the significance of their deep understanding of Family would plug into this new understanding of how to address God. You do not need an educational certification or certificate to understand this if you have a family which uses the model God has given us. There is instant revelation for people who have families in those times, and even in our times now, provided your family is modeled in a way God has intended. Even if your family is fractured, as can happen now or back in antiquity, if you have a biblical understand of the family, the revelation becomes instintanous by just knowing that Jesus gave us the words, "Our Father..." wow...
An earlier reviewer mentioned how his disciples were not scholarly, and they didn't require a nuanced view of the Lord's prayer: "Christ did not use a theological college to interpret his words or prayers.. he sermon-ed for the common man for his simple uneducated heart to understand."
As I always say, it was Jesus the Christ, not Jesus Ph.D. Only the awards, honors, and accolades from man are of man. You can't take your degree to the gates of heaven like a ticket to disney. Our having or not a Ph.D. in Theology may or may not validate our knowledge and understanding of the bible. Degree program or not, it is our obligation to understand God's word at deeper levels and continue to do so. I also laugh at the above-quoted review because God's word is not superficial. As if, Jesus's spoken word should be simply read once and we move on, nay friend, each iteration over God's word should be considered in greater meaning and purpose, and then applying that understanding to the greater context of his word is so necessary for understanding his word correctly, and in this case even our prayer life.
Is the "Lord's Prayer" ready out of the can for the simple? Yes, and I feel reciting the "Lord's Prayer" is worthy, honorable and even necessary. Should we take the "Lord's Prayer" as the food we are given, learn about its ingredients, understanding the flavors and the sustenance it contains so as to apply it to our prayer lives? Absolutely. The Lord puts the cookies on the lower shelf and the upper shelf. As we grow we naturally eat the cookies on the higher shelves.
My feeling is that this book helps us to deepen our understanding of this prayer in a wider way, and also provides tools for applying that understanding to the greater context of the bible. We can take the approach the author used for this prayer, and think about other scriptures and prayers in similar ways.
This book was valuable and an excellent length so as to cover the content, with consideration of the pace of life we all have. The narrator was a great fit for the content too, great packaged content! It deepens our prayer life.
Deeper Understanding of the "Lord's Prayer"

His writing style is dry. Not very creative... straightforward at times. Certain sections I would stop reading listen to something else. This book did not captivate my attention as others on the TLP have.
Mohler does not use personal examples very much. I would have liked to hear how the prayer transformed his life. As such his contention that this is the revolutionary world changing prayer is not convincing. He makes it sound initially like Jesus prayer pops out of a vacuum and does not refer, compare and contrast it to 1st century prayer approach of the Jews.
if you are Reformed or Calvinist in your theology you might like it better.
Finally IMO it's always a great benefit to focus on The Lord's Prayer. I definitely benefited from reading this book even if it was slow going at times.
