Repeat After Me: What Does 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' Actually Mean?

Jesus prayed in a way that made his disciples ask him, “How do we do that?” His answer was what we call the Lord’s Prayer. This week: What does “Hallowed Be Thy Name” actually mean? Preacher: Andrew Forrest Scripture: Luke 9:28-29 Luke 11:1 Matthew 6:9-13 Quotation: This request is based upon the deepest need of the human world. Human life is not about human life. Nothing will go right in it until the greatness and goodness of its source and governor is adequately grasped. His very name is then held in the highest possible regard. Until that is so, the human compass will always be pointing in the wrong direction, and individual lives as well as history as a whole will suffer from constant and fluctuating disorientation. Candidly, that is exactly the condition we find ourselves in. —Dallas Willard, The Divine Conspiracy
