Learning to Pray Pt. 2: Welcome To The Household | Matthew 6

Season 3 | Learning to Pray Pt. 2: Welcome To The Household | Matthew 6

We are rounding out season 3 with a special three-part conversation on prayer. In Matthew 6, Jesus is in the midst of the Sermon on the Mount and he talks about how and where and what to pray. 

Part 2 of our conversation focuses on the first half of the Lord's Prayer.

What does it mean that this prayer is communal? Why the gendered name for God? What does it mean to keep God's name holy? And why does Jesus use the word 'Kingdom'? So many good topics in this episode.

In part 3 (coming later this week), we will focus on the second half of the Lord's Prayer.

This podcast is a partnership between 40 Orchards and Processing Faith…

40 Orchards, with Steph and Lisa, invites people to wrestle through Biblical texts using the ancient Jewish concepts of midrash.

In a 40 Orchards study, every question is safe, everyone is welcome, and every voice is valued. We believe there’s room for all of us. No person and no question is off limits—because we know that together we can expand each other’s experience of what is sacred, whole, and good. 

You can learn more about 40 Orchards and sign-up for a study by going to 40orchards.org.

Processing Faith is a space created by Jason Steffenhagen for people to do exactly that…process their faith. It’s not one thing…but more like a good recipe. It’s like 1 part pastoral care, 1 part theological exploration, and 1 part wrestling with all the questions. 

You can learn more about Processing Faith and sign-up for a free 45 min session by going to processingfaith.com.
