The Disciples’ Prayer

This morning we continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the nations—even us. Today, in 11:1-4, we reach Jesus’ famous prayer known as the “Lord’s Prayer.” Contrary to popular thought, this prayer is not a mantra to be repeated, but a model for what a healthy prayer life looks like—not merely to pray better, but to know God better.
