Summary:

This "little book with a big message" will completely transform your understanding of what Jesus meant when he answered the request, "Lord, teach us to pray." He answered by reciting what we now have come to know as the Lord's Prayer, in the common language of his day, Aramaic. Within these short pages, you will journey back to hear the original words for yourself and, in doing so, will receive the true essence of Jesus' message regarding how we should pray. You will receive the expanded meanings and reach new depths in understanding.But, rest assured, this is only the beginning! For just as the early disciples discovered, reciting the prayer in Aramaic ignites a spark--a spark that awakens a remembrance of our innate divinity as children of the living God. And as this remembrance begins to resound in the silent chambers of the heart, the prayer begins to inform every aspect of daily life. Nothing is the same. We have been set afire by love everlasting and left undone, and can only release our own, involuntary, ecstatic cry. This is what it means to pray!
