I loved this course. Will review it again and probably again. So much depth to think about. Just a note about purchasing new courses, for me in NZ with the exchange rate of NZ to U.S dollars, the cost of the courses is getting a little out of my reach. No doubt this is an issue for many people in many different countries. It would be great if these courses were accessible globally at an affordable price.

I, as pastor of a local church, used this study/class as the basis of a Lenten class. I have many of Dr. Wright's books and commentaries and found this not too academic but not too simple, either. It really engaged people in discussion of the Lord's Prayer. I especially appreciated that it was broken down, after the lecture, into a comprehension section and then a reflection section.

I loved taking this course. I have been a follower of Jesus for most of my life, and have spent time digging deeper into The Lord's Prayer. This class propelled me even further into what Jesus is conveying about how to connect mind heart soul and spirit while praying through daily living. N.T. Wright is so easy to listen to! I just signed up for another class with him.
By Fr. Bob Goodman on 11/2/2019
This prayer is repeated so often that is generally taken for granted and spoken by rote. Professor Wright's lecture re-awakens us to its true power and purpose. I would suggest this lecture to clergy as a foundation for a much needed sermon to remind parishioners that the Lord's Prayer is more than a recitation of words.

As a former pastor and seminary instructor, I found Tom's discussion of the Lord's Prayer to cover this old ground with fresh insights and with provocative, challenging comments and exhortations. Thanks for making this material available.

Prof. Wright was wonderful and its awesome to be able to hear him speak. I do with that the website had an easier interface. Its a little confusing with the Q and A section. Perhaps each question (of the 3 he always asked) could have its own thread of comments....you could add your comment or answer to the question below that particular question. Just an idea. Overall a wonderful course on a fantastic subject!
By Alan Christy Soewargo on 6/12/2019
It is a good course on The Lord's Prayer, especially with the current Pope's decision, we need to know specifically where we stand as Christians. And learning this course truly affects your daily prayer, as my pastor once said "Do everything with understanding", understanding Jesus's purpose and emphasis in the prayer will nurture your faith and spiritual discipline which is scarce in this age
By Carolyn Swanson on 6/11/2019
I took this course because I wanted to teach about the Lord's Prayer in our weekly Bible Study. I will have completed the class tomorrow, using Sections 5-8. The class is enthralled. Of course, that's because I am using the words of N.T. Wright. I was able to copy the sessions. We/I learned a depth of the Lord's Prayer I never knew before. I will never pray it without thinking of this course. Thank you1

I love the way prof Wright brings the whole narrative of the gospel (from creation itself) to bear on specific texts. Having grown up with the Lord's prayer as a central part of my own prayer life, this course brings the fuller blessings and heavenly realities that are ours in Christ into view. Thank you Tom! Praise God!

Taking this course has enabled me to review my part in bringing the Kingdom of God to bear upon the earth. I consider aligning myself with the will of God a privilege not to be taken lightly or trifled with. Daily inviting God into my life is an act of consecration, which I must make to make room for God to move in the affairs of His children.
