Prayer, the Gospel, and How to Do It | S2E5

Prayer is one of the most basic discipleship activities. In a really simple way, we might say prayer is just communicating with God—speaking and listening to him.Which means, prayer is ultimately about relationship. Through his life, death, and resurrection in our place, Jesus reconciled us to God and into a loving relationship with him—where he loves us and now, we love him back with our whole heart. And prayer is the ongoing expression of that right relationship with God in Jesus. Prayer is the way we delight in and wrestle with and just live daily life in relationship with God.This one time, Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, said “Pray like this” and then gave us an example of how to pray. A lot of Christians call this “The Lord’s Prayer” or the “model prayer.” In this episode, Christy walks through The Lord’s Prayer line by line to help us understand how Jesus taught us to pray.
