Matthew 6:9 - 6:13 (Part 2)

Gospel of Matthew
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg

In this discussion, Steve Gregg examines the famous prayer that Jesus taught his disciples to pray, found in Matthew 6:9-13. Gregg discusses the phrase "Our Father in heaven," pointing out that Christians can address their prayers to either the Father or Jesus, as long as they pray in Jesus' name. He then emphasizes the importance of treating God with reverence and considers the scandalous lack of reverence for God in many modern Christian lives.
