"The Great House of God" by Max Lucado

Another wonderful study by Max Lucado this time focusing on The Lord's Prayer. He takes the tact of using a house to explain the Lord's Prayer. He goes from room to room and explains different parts of the prayer and helps us understand each part. He gives us a unique look on the prayer and encourages us to live in the prayer rather than just saying the words.

I highly recommend this book and it comes with a study guide to help with the application to every day life. Lucado does a great job of making the gospel easy to grasp and he does it with everyday language and illustrations.

"The Lord's Prayer is a floor plan of the house of God: a step-by-step description of how God meets our needs when we dwell in him. Everything that occurs in a healthy house is described in this prayer. Protection, instruction, forgiveness, provision . . . all under God's roof."
