A Picture Of Prayer 3

Continuing with the third message re-discovering the Lord's Prayer, we come to verse 11, "give us today our daily bread". As we read through this prayer we find that this phrase in particular deals with tangible needs, specific to our need for food and nourishment. But is that all "daily bread" is talking about? Terry helps us look deeper into this Scripture and realize that daily bread is much more than asking for three meals a day and getting what we want. We find that it is much more about trust.

Series Information

The Lord's Prayer is not a rote recitation towards apathy and boredom. What we call the Lord's Prayer, prayed by Jesus when His disciples asked Him how to pray, is rich with depth and meaning, while at the same time simple in its mission and purpose. Using pictures and symbols from the time Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount, coupled with the early days of the church, Terry offers a perspective of our praying, and this prayer, that fires the imagination.
