Rescue Us

Don't let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. These words of Jesus in Matthew 6:13 have built up and sustained the church for 2,000 years. With a cry that speaks to the human heart and a desire for God to step into our messes and trials to bring, Christians in 2026 join with the early church to simply ask God to rescue us. Join us this week as we dive into the final verse of the Lord's Prayer and learn what it means for God to rescue us from temptation.

Forgiveness is Like Breathing

We arrive at the only idea expressed in the Lord’s Prayer that Jesus thinks important enough to elaborate on after the prayer, forgiveness; perhaps hinting that the entire reason for praying this prayer in the first place is a daily cleansing away of all built-up resentments, failures, and accompanying shame. Join us this Sunday as we explore the power of forgiveness.

Daily Bread?

In the third line of the Lord’s prayer, Jesus teaches His disciples to pray that God would provide “daily bread.” What does this mean? This week, we look at Bible translation mysteries, take a trip into the wilderness, and consider a surprising mindset that Jesus calls His disciples to adopt.

Our Father

Who is your father is a question that many of us get asked on a regular basis. As followers of Jesus, its also a very important question for us to ask ourselves. In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus teaches us to call God “Father.” Our understanding of what it means for God to be our father directly impacts the way that we’ll pray to him. Join us on Sunday as we begin a series on prayer and learn about the character of the one who we call Father.

In Secret

We now begin a new section of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 6, where Jesus focuses on our relationship to our Father in Heaven. This Sunday we are going to look at the first of three examples he will be teaching his disciples: giving, prayer, fasting. In each case, Jesus is going to stress the importance of a secret spiritual life that no one else knows about but our Father in Heaven. Join us as we discover the benefits of living in secret!
