Excerpt from The Message of the Lord's Prayer to Men of the Twentieth Century John R. Mott Once said, An alarming weak ness among Christians is that we are producing Christian activities faster than we are producing Christian experiences. But in the strain and stress Of war, in the dark ened homes Of the Allies, and on the blood-soaked fields of Flanders, the prayer of the Lord Jesus Christ came into its own again, and everywhere men are studying it with renewed and serious interest.
