    About this ebook

    ‘a unique, classic explication of the ontological understanding of The Lord’s Prayer. Its language and methodology are to be relished’
    —Rev. Fr. Dr. John Nwafor

    ‘Anchored on the doctrine of hylomorphism, this book has to do with the dual nature of man as body and soul as well as the corresponding duality of his yearnings. It is a splendid, scholarly and pastoral masterpiece. It is homily, or more correctly, a compendium of homilies of inestimable value, in depth, spread and clarity. It is reader friendly and I recommend it to all’
    —Engr. Prof. Stephen Ojobor
    ‘...a wonderful exposé of The Lord’s Prayer. While stressing on the primacy of praise as the essential element of a Christian prayer, it also brings to the fore the enviable position we occupy as children of God. At the same time, it assures us that our human frailty should not discourage us from approaching God in prayer since he is the creator of it all. It is a ‘must read’ for every Christian.’
    —Dr (Mrs.) Chinwe Anibueze
