The Sermon on the Mount: Built on the Rock - Week 14: Matthew 6:9-15

Last week, we looked at half of Jesus' teaching on prayer in the Sermon on the Mount. We saw two specific pitfalls to avoid when praying. This week, we will look at the positive side of prayer, including how we should pray. Jesus gave believers a powerful tool in the form of a model prayer to guide our prayer lives. The Lord’s Prayer, as it is often called, is an effective way to develop our prayer lives. Join us on Sunday to see how you can use this amazing tool. In our sermon series through the Sermon on the Mount, we will see that Jesus was giving a manifesto for how Christians are to live as citizens of heaven, while still being residents of a sinful world. But this is no easy task, and the sermons will challenge us to think differently about obedience. It will challenge us to think deeply about grace and law. And it will challenge us to think soberly about what it means to be a disciple.
