The disciples encounter Jesus praying in Luke 11 and ask Jesus to teach them to pray. Jesus responds with the Lord’s prayer. The language Jesus uses is that of a community: give us, forgive us, do not bring us. When Jesus teaches, he does so from a communal lens. Discipleship grows in community. As we learn to pray and follow together, we discover God’s work in our lives and in the lives of those around us.
Scripture: Luke 11:1-8
