Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered where the prayers used in church come from? No matter what denomination of Christianity you are from, no matter which church you go to, if you attend mass or liturgy, you will notice that the prayers are all very similar in wording. This book goes through the most commonly used liturgical prayers in the Coptic Orthodox Church, describes why these prayers are important to the liturgy, and identifies the Biblical basis for where these prayers came from. Through this study, we learn that all these prayers originate from the Bible and the tradition started by Jesus Christ Himself at the last supper.
