Summary
Pope Francis: When you pray, say the Our Father
Less than two years after the publication of the book God's Name is Mercy, a new unique book-interview of Pope Francis entitled Our Father was published, in which the Pope interprets the words and meaning of the most beloved Christian prayer that Jesus himself taught his disciples to pray.
In this precious book, Pope Francis explains the prayer in simple and understandable language Father Marco Pozza, famous theologian and prison chaplain, answering the questions of the Lord's Prayer. This open and intimate conversation and numerous specific questions addressed to the Pope enable everyone to take a deeper look at the well-known prayer and its comprehensive understanding and application to the everyday life of every person. Interpreting the Lord's Prayer carefully and line by line, Pope Francis connects certain invocations of the prayer with real life and brings out numerous incidents that he experienced as a priest and cardinal in Buenos Aires, but at the same time also brings out the worries and hopes of men and women today. All this makes this book very vital and useful to all people, since it enables Jesus' Lord's Prayer to become a guide for a life full of meaning and purpose.
