The Lord’s Prayer is the most well-known prayer in history. Memorised by millions and spoken in churches, homes, weddings and funerals, it is far more than familiar words – it is a framework for living. When Jesus taught this prayer (Matthew 6:9-13), he was not offering a spiritual formula but giving us a vision of life with God.Each line reveals what matters most: God’s priorities. The prayer begins with the Father’s love, moves through worship, surrender, forgiveness and trust, and ends with eternal hope. In ‘The Lord’s Prayer: A 40-Day Devotional’, J.John guides readers through this prayer over the course of forty reflections built around ten rich themes – each beginning with the letter ‘P’:·      God’s Personal love·      Praise his name·      Align with his Purpose·      Adopt his Priority·      Rely on his Provision·      Walk in his Pardon·      Extend Peace·      Lean on his Presence·      Trust his Protection·      Lift your eyes with PerspectiveSome traditions end the prayer with ‘but rescue us from the evil one’, while others include the familiar doxology: ‘For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.’ This devotional honours both, concluding with praise that reflects the heart of Scripture (see 1 Chronicles 29:11).Whether you have prayed the Lord’s Prayer all your life or you are just beginning to explore its meaning, this devotional will help you renew your heart, deepen your faith and realign your life with God’s eternal priorities. Perfect for personal devotion, family use or small-group study, it invites you not just to pray the Lord’s Prayer but to live it – and let it change everything.

Marriage isn’t built in a day. It’s built every day.Marriage is one of life’s greatest adventures. It is full of joy and laughter, but it also brings challenges that test our patience, faith and character. Getting married is like planting a garden: it looks beautiful on the wedding day, but it takes a lifetime of tending to make it flourish.Over the years J.John and Killy have learned that a great marriage doesn’t just happen, it is built intentionally, day by day. That’s why they have written this devotional: to help couples prepare for, strengthen, or refresh their marriage with God at the centre.Across these forty days you’ll explore themes that matter: communication, forgiveness, romance, resilience, commitment and more. Each day includes a Bible verse, a reflection to ponder, questions to talk through, a way to go deeper, a prayer to pray together and a personal reflection from Killy because marriage is always a duet, never a solo.This devotional is honest, practical and encouraging. You’ll find wisdom from the Bible, stories from life and even a sprinkle of humour (because every marriageneeds laughter).As you journey through these pages, you’ll discover not just how to survive marriage, but how to make it thrive.Whether you are preparing for marriage, newly married or many years in, may these forty days help you build or rebuild a relationship that is faithful, joyful and enduring – a marriage that reflects the love of Christ.Marriage Works when you work on it.
