From the creators of The Lord's Prayer film and the forthcoming global television series The Sacred Thread comes a transformative exploration of how the Lord's Prayer unlocks the power of God to guide, heal, and renew our lives and the world around us.

The Lord's Prayer is the most iconic and widely spoken prayer in human history. It's not only a sacred prayer, but the very essence of the Bible's message—showing us who God is, why Jesus came, and how we fit into the unfolding story of God's redemption. Yet, familiarity often dulls the power of this profound prayer, leaving its deep meaning untapped and unlived.

Every single phrase of the Lord's Prayer is loaded with revolutionary significance for Jesus' original audience—and for us. In this book, Brad Gray and Brad Nelson draw on decades of research to unpack these words in their original historical and cultural context, revealing the bold truths that can still shake our lives today.

You'll discover how to:

• partner with Jesus in bringing heaven here by aligning your daily actions and influence with His kingdom and will.
• gain wisdom to mend broken relationships and stand against the forces of evil.
• understand what Jesus' words meant to his original audience.
• gain confidence and peace from bearing God's name, goodness, and glory to the world.
• experience each moment as holy—as an opportunity for the life of heaven to be a part of your life now.

We are called to actively participate in Jesus' mission to restore all things, bringing the abundance of heaven to earth. Bringing Heaven Here will unveil the hidden truths and untapped power of the world's most famous prayer—and show how it applies to your life today. Discover how to stay rooted in Him, embrace the purpose He has for you, and let the Lord's Prayer guide you into a life of true transformation.
