In this special pre-retreat episode, pastors Rich, Greg, Rachel, and Scott gather to discuss the sessions they've prepared for the upcoming Corner Church Fall Retreat. Centered around the timeless words of the Lord's Prayer, each session offers a unique perspective on how this prayer guides and transforms our daily walk with God.
Rich kicks off the conversation by setting the scene from the Sermon on the Mount. He explores how Jesus taught about authentic connection with God and introduces the significance of the Lord's Prayer in that context.
Greg dives into the phrases "Hallowed be Thy name" and "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Reflecting on the reverence due to God's name, Greg discusses the importance of recognizing God's work around us and how we can actively participate in His Kingdom.
Rachel shifts the focus to our daily dependence on God with "Give us today our daily bread" and "Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." She delves into trusting God for our needs, the challenge this poses to our sense of security, and the transformative power of embracing grace and forgiveness.
Scott concludes with a discussion on "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one." He addresses the realities of life's challenges and the importance of seeking God's guidance and protection amid struggles.
Join us as we share insights, stories, and heartfelt dialogue in anticipation of a meaningful retreat experience. Whether you're attending the retreat or simply seeking a deeper understanding of the Lord's Prayer, this episode invites you to prepare your heart and mind for a journey of faith and discovery.
