All of us have prayed the Lord’s prayer on many occasions, but what does it mean to live according to the Lord’s prayer? During the autumn, in our Home Groups, we examined the relevance of the Lord’s prayer to our life and faith and reminded ourselves that prayer should always be the starting point in everything we undertake as Christians. If ever there was a time when we need new confidence and renewed commitment in our personal and corporate prayer life it is now - especially as we entered an exciting new season of mission and ministry at Emmanuel with the arrival of Tom and Claire and Andy and Alice.
This series of studies, supplementing our preaching on a Sunday morning, gave plenty of ‘food for thought’ as we continue to discern God’s future vision for us here at Emmanuel. As we wrestle with God’s word, it both challenged and strengthened our faith, as we allow His Spirit to shape our lives.
