How Not To Pray (A Prologue to Praying the Lord's Prayer)

November 4, 2018 • Rev. Adam Feichtmann

Jesus taught his disciples how to pray, but before he did he taught them how not to pray. Last Sunday we concluded our fall sermon series on Praying the Lord's Prayer. This Sunday we are taking one week to look at Jesus' prologue to the Lord's Prayer, in which he spends four verses teaching his disciples how not to pray. In preparation for Sunday, read, meditate, and pray through Mathew 6:5-8. Ask yourself if your life of prayer might be similar to two of the examples Jesus gives of how not to pray. If so, reflect on how you might shift more toward the model of prayer found in the Lord's Prayer. I look forward to worshiping and praying with you this Sunday! Pastor Adam

Praying the Lord's Prayer: Lead Us Not Into Temptation

October 21, 2018 • Rev. Chris Stratton

Life is full of temptations and trials. How are we to pray in the midst of difficult times? This Sunday we have the honor of having Rev. Chris Stratton, Academic Dean at Pacifica Christian High School, continue our fall sermon series on Praying the Lord's Prayer. Rev. Stratton will unpack the sixth petition of the prayer from the Gospel of Matthew 6:13 which is, "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." In preparation for this Sunday, spend a few minutes reflecting on what temptations and trials are currently in your life, then pray for God to lead you away from those situations and shelter you with his loving protection. Have a blessed weekend and may God encourage and strengthen you as you gather together for common worship around Word and sacrament this Sunday. Pastor Adam

Praying The Lord's Prayer: Forgive Us Our Debts

October 14, 2018 • Rev. Adam Feichtmann

To forgive is to suffer. When we forgive someone we don't just forget their sins and shove them under the rug. Rather, we pay the cost for their sins and carry them ourselves. We suffer instead of trying to make them suffer for what they did. This Sunday we are continuing our fall sermon series through Praying the Lord's Prayer by looking at the fifth petition of the prayer, which is, "and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors." As you prepare for Sunday, reflect on your relationships with God and those in your life. Do you need to ask God or someone else to forgive a specific debt/sin? Is there someone whom you need to forgive their debt/sin? Neither of those conversations will be easy, they may even cost you something, but as we will see on Sunday, forgiveness ultimately will bring life not death. I look forward to worshiping and praying with you this Sunday! Pastor Adam
