We strive to follow Jesus Christ by being… Attentive to the Word |
 In the summer of 2019 Pastor Scott gave a 7-week sermon series focused on the meaning of the Lord’s Prayer for today. Jesus taught his disciples what is now the best-known prayer in Christianity as a result of a request from his disciples, “Lord, teach us to pray.” Prayer is one of the most basic and potentially most transformative spiritual practices of our faith. The seven-week series examines the Lord’s Prayer line by line we seek to understand the life of prayer for Christians. How does God answer prayer? How do we Presbyterians understand prayer? If we are reluctant pray-ers, can the Lord’s prayer teach how to pray? We consider these and many other questions about the life of prayer. Each Sunday many gathered after the service for an illuminating exploration of the sermon, providing a nuanced, contemporary understanding of the Lord’s Prayer. Sermon audio links are below.
Week 1: Lord, Teach Us to Pray Week 2: Our Father, Who Art in Heaven, Hallowed be Your Name Week 3: Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be Done Week 4: Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread Week 5: Forgive Us Our Debts, as We Forgive Our Debtors Week 6: Lead Us Not into Temptation, but Deliver Us from Evil Week 7: For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory Forever
