The American Christian church has always been under attack, and pastors and laymen alike are susceptible to feeling disheartened at any time in the ministry. In Stories of a Parish Pastor, Davies walks through the Lord's Prayer verse by verse and shares his own personal experience of forty years as a pastor to encourage anyone interested in supporting and praying for their pastor or others in the congregation. He also provides wisdom that he has learned about how to honor God in the midst of trials.
