This study explores the reception history of the Lord's Prayer in the Ghanaian context. After presenting the current state of research in the Lord's Prayer from an exegetical perspective, this book discusses a wide field of hermeneutical approaches, such as inculturation biblical hermeneutics, mother-tongue biblical hermeneutics, African feminist biblical hermeneutics, liberation biblical hermeneutics and post-colonial biblical hermeneutics. Taking the discussions of these approaches together, it was realised that the general hermeneutical setting in Ghana (and Africa as whole) is reader-centred, i.e. the readers play an active role in the hermeneutical process and the results of the hermeneutical process are aimed at the readers' contexts and the transformation of those contexts.

Grow your faith by reading through the entire Bible and understanding it like never before.

The Bible is the Word of God. It's the Living Word. It's an epic love story between God and His people.

And... it's long, and dense, and sometimes seems really confusing. A Yearlong Journey Through The Bible is here to help you read through, understand, and apply the Bible to your life. Each of the 52 entries included here will give you:

- Daily reading plan A plan to break the 66 books of the Bible into manageable, daily chunks - Background and Context Information about the passage's author, time period, and themes - Weekly Word to Reflect On A single word is presented each week for you to reflect on, meditate on, and return to throughout the week. - Key Bible Verse to Memorize A key verse from the week's reading is highlighted, offering an accessible way to memorize scripture and hide it in your heart. - Key Weekly Question Each week features a key question designed to help you engage meaningfully with the section of scripture you are reading. - Daily Reflection Questions Daily reflection questions guide readers in finding meaningful engagement and application for each day's reading. - The Whole Story Box This feature connects the dots between Old and New Testament passages, emphasizing how the week's reading fits into the Bible as a whole and highlights God's plan for redemption through Jesus Christ.

A Yearlong Journey Through the Bible is a one-stop resource for people looking to read, engage with, and understand the Bible in a year.

Jesus called the disciples to follow him in his ministry as God the Father called all the prophets to deliver his message to the people in the Old Testament: "As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. "Come, follow me, Jesus said, and I will make you fishers of men" At once they left their nets and followed him." (Mark 1:16-17). The first calling of disciples is to follow Jesus and to know him personally as a result of this relationship; they then lead others to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Christ is still calling people today to follow him; if he calls you please answer his call the reward is great; he is waiting for you and me to take the gospel of God to the end of the earth.

The Bible isn't meant to be left unquestioned; it's meant to be opened and read and questioned. And everyone has questions about the Bible--from the senior pastor of the big church down the road to the guest at the hotel off the interstate. Where did it come from? Who wrote it? Why are people so inspired by it (or fearful of it)? What does it have to do with my life? Hal Seed takes you on a tour into and behind the Bible, so that you get to know it and the God who makes himself known in it.
