Perhaps the most famous prayer, or even most famous quotation of all time, may be the Lord's Prayer. It's interesting that the disciples did not ask Jesus how to preach, or how to perform miracles, or how to plant a church, but they asked him the most foundational aspect of the Christian life. How do we pray? What should we focus on? We need to know what the Lord Jesus would have us pray. In this prayer we learn many things about how our prayer life is supposed to look.
