In this message from Joash Thomas, we focus on the line "Hallowed Be Your Name" from the Lord’s Prayer, exploring its deeper meaning beyond personal holiness. Rather than simply asking for personal requests, prayer is framed as a spiritual formation tool that aligns us with God's values, especially regarding justice and systemic sin. By praying for God's name to be honored as holy, we are invited to reflect His love and justice in our world, much like Jesus did through His table of inclusivity and mercy.

In this video listen to 2 Chronicles Chapter 23, read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.In 2 Chronicles 23 Jehoida initiates a coup to put Joash on the throne.
