Overview

Renewing Your Hope with the Lord's Prayer By Drs. Steven Childers and John Frame What if the Lord's Prayer is more than a way to pray? What if it's the key to renewing your deepest Christian hope? In this powerful Christian prayer book-the second volume of the Faith, Hope, and Love Trilogy -Steven Childers and John Frame invite you on a life-transforming journey through the Lord's Prayer. It's not just something to recite but a divine pathway to spiritual renewal, deeper prayer, and kingdom purpose. Drawing from nearly a century of combined teaching and ministry, the authors help you recover a forgotten framework that once shaped Christian life for centuries-uniting faith (Apostles' Creed), hope (Lord's Prayer), and love (Ten Commandments). This ancient vision renews what Christians believe, where they place their deepest hope, and how they live in love and discipleship. Written for pastors, church leaders, and thoughtful believers worldwide, this book blends biblical clarity, theological depth, and practical wisdom. Each chapter is a guided learning path for real-life transformation and spiritual formation. Don't read it alone-walk through it with a friend, mentor, or small group. Let God renew your mind, stir your heart, and shape your life to be more like Christ. This is more than a book on prayer. It's a call to live with unshakable Christian hope, anchored in God's kingdom promises and biblical truth.
