Daily Devo | "Our Father" (Practicing the Way, Matthew 6:5-15)
Description
When Jesus taught his disciples to pray, he started by making it clear that prayer is not about a ritual, but a relationship. He highlighted many of the ritualistic ways to pray that we should avoid. Instead, we should begin with the relationship of being children of a loving, heavenly parent, "Our Father".
