''Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.''So says Rat to Mole, as he introduces him to the delights of the river and his friends Toad, the spirit of rebellion, and Badger, the spirit of England. But it is a world where the motor-car is about to wreck the gipsy caravan, the revolutionaries in the Wild Wood are threatening the social fabric, the god Pan is abroad, and the warm seductive whispers of the south are drifting into the English lanes.An international children''s classic, The Wind in the Willows grew from the author''s letters to his young son, yet it is concerned almost exclusively with adult themes: fear of radical changes in political, social, and economic power. Mole''s acceptance into the conservative world of the River Bank, and Toad''s wild attempts to escape from it, are narrated in virtuoso language ranging from lively parody to elaborate fin-de-siècle mysticism.

Since the beginning of Christianity, the Lord''s Prayer has occupied an important place in the lives of Jesus''s disciples, for it is the prayer Jesus himself taught them. Like other biblical prayers, the Lord''s Prayer contains words people offer to God. But since this prayer is from Jesus and is part of Scripture, it is also God''s Word to people. When we say this prayer, not only are we speaking to God, but God is also speaking to us.Highly regarded New Testament scholar William Wright shows how this classic text can speak afresh to the life of the church today. He integrates critical exegesis, theological exposition, and Christian spirituality to explicate the theological substance of the Lord''s Prayer. His goal is to help readers come to know God and love God and others more deeply through a focused study of this important Christian prayer.The Touchstone Texts series addresses key Bible passages, making high-quality biblical scholarship accessible to the church. The series editor is Stephen B. Chapman, Duke Divinity School.
