What Does It Mean to Call God "Father"?

On Father's Day, Pastor Kirt Anderson draws from Isaiah 63 to explore one of the most personal questions in the Bible: where is God when His people are suffering? The people of Israel, exiled in Babylon for nearly 70 years, cried out to God and asked why He seemed so far away. Pastor Kirt unpacks what that season of waiting was really about, and why the image of God as Father, though rare in the Old Testament, is so central to how Jesus taught us to pray.Pastor Kirt also shares honest, personal stories from his own experience as a dad, and why the eruption of love he felt at the birth of his daughter gave him a new window into God's love for us. Whether you are a father, struggling with your own faith, or simply wondering what the Lord's Prayer really means, this message is for you. Naples Community Church meets at 849 7th Ave S, Naples, FL.
