Advent is a season of longing and hope for Christmas - a time when anticipation fills the air. But what does this waiting reveal about the kind of people Christ is shaping us to be? In this episode of Breaking Bread, Joe Leman and Matt Kaufmann explore how the Lord's prayer stirs a deep desire for Christ's kingdom and transforms our hearts to long for him in and outside of the Christmas season. Show notes: What is Advent? Advent is the season when the Christian church prepares for the celebration of Christ's coming – Christmas. What advantage does advent offer the believer? Every year, the Christian is given an opportunity to wait for, long for and celebrate Christ's coming. This practice can shape in the believer a desire for Christ's coming kingdom. What is the Lord's prayer? Christ gave his disciples the Lord's Prayer (Luke 11) when they asked how they should pray. This prayer has a deep and rich history in the Church both past and present. What advantage does the Lord's prayer offer the believer? The Lord's prayer offers the believer a template for praying and thinking. It can be divided into two sections each having three subparts. Our Father which art in heaven... Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Our Father which art in heaven... Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. How does the Lord's prayer enliven advent? The Lord's prayer prepares in us a heart that wants God's kingdom to come and will to be done. How does advent enliven our faith? Advent teaches us that waiting, longing and celebrating Christ's present and coming kingdom is tangible, practical and meaningful.
The first prayer of Christmas was offered by Isaiah to prepare the way of the Messiah now answered in the barren womb of an elderly couple Zacharias and Elizabeth.

Persistence is an admirable quality... ask any toddler. The widow's persistence against an unjust judge in Luke 18 is exactly the persistence needed by Christians today... prayer, prayer and more prayer for justice and for Jesus' second coming. This is not a "change God's mind" or a "God, I'd really like..." kind of prayer, but constant prayer that sets our eyes on that glorious day when Christ returns. This active faith trusts in God's character and plan, and is crucial for maintaining hope in a struggling world.

Jesus teaches us how to pray.
Adventurous Living - The Meadow Springs Community Church Podcast
Prayer is such an integral part of our knowledge of God. We can go to Him in confidence, asking, seeing and knocking. Because, by His very nature and name, he is honor bound to give us more of Himself... Father Son, and Holy Spirit. Whatever we are praying for or about, it is more about God's provision than our own persistence.
SCRIPTURE: Matthew 6:9 / Luke 11:1-2SHOW NOTES: For encouragement on your spiritual journey, we invite you to visit our ministry website, Discover God's Truth, where you can access additional resources to enrich your Walk with God. Prayer is a vital part of our Christian life. We communicate with our Heavenly Father and seek His wisdom, guidance, and direction. Jesus' disciples traveled with Him for three years. They listened to His teachings, witnessed His miracles, and heard Him pray. Many times, He would go off to pray in the evening or early morning hours. In today's lesson, the disciples ask Jesus to teach them how to pray. He responds with the prayer we often call The Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-15) or The Disciples' Prayer (Luke 11:2-4). This prayer is the example or model Jesus gave to His disciples. One day, Jesus was praying in a certain place. When He finished, one of his disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name.'” Luke 11:1-2 God's "name" reflects His nature. Jesus called God His Father. We also call Him our Heavenly Father to give Him glory and praise. "But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy." 1 Peter 1:15 SONG: "Song of the Saints" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmrbS8pI6HU&list=RDNmrbS8pI6HU&start_radio=1

But here's the thing, real prayer to the God who doesn't do shame produces people who stop using shame as a sorting tool. If God rushes in to help with zero calculations, then maybe the question isn't "How do I sound more spiritual?" but "Am I reflecting God's shameless generosity or humanity's shame-soaked gatekeeping?" Refugees, broke neighbors, starving babies in Gaza, overwhelmed friends showing up at your door like it's midnight and they're out of options? They're not a spiritual test. They're an invitation to look like the God we claim to follow. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc
In this sermon, the Reverend Jacob Smith shares about the grace of prayer.
Is it difficult for you to ask for help? If it is, you're not alone. As we get older, we want to figure out our problems on our own, making it increasingly uncomfortable for us to reach out in times of need. But when it comes to prayer, God wants us to cry out to Him. What an incredible privilege it is to be able to humbly and confidently approach our Father in heaven with all our problems. As we cry out to Him, our eyes are refocused on Him, the only One who can truly answer our prayers.

Parable Of Persistent Prayer - Luke 11 w/ Mo Thieman
Just like the disciples, we ask Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray.”And Jesus does just that in this text. As Sarah Stenson teaches us, the first half of this text is both how we pray and what we pray. The second half is why we pray. Jesus gives you the words. The Holy Spirit keeps you in faith. The Father gives you His name and His mercy in your baptism. Now God has you where He wants you: you're sending your prayer to the right address. CARE OF SOULS - ADDICTIONIn Care of Souls, a special mini-series podcast from Luther House of Study, Lutheran pastors and theologians come together to explore the deeply personal and pastoral task of preaching to and caring for those struggling with life's challenging situations: addiction, death, family disharmony, and more. Rooted in the theology of the cross and the Lutheran tradition of radical grace, this series offers both theological depth and practical guidance for pastors, church workers, and lay leaders.With conversations, real-life stories, and reflections from the front lines of ministry, Care of Souls equips listeners to enter the broken places of addiction not with easy answers, but with the crucified and risen Christ.Because in the end, it's not about fixing people—it's about preaching the Gospel.Listen to Care of Souls wherever you listen to podcasts or on the Luther House website: Care of Souls - AddictionSING TO THE LORD Martin Luther said, "Next to the word of God, the art of music is the greatest treasure in the world." To understand the importance of hymnody in the Lutheran church, Lars Olson and Mason Van Essen sit down with Zachary Brockhoff to discuss the lectionary's hymns, their meaning and history, and how the music preaches the Gospel.

What does Jesus really mean when He says, "Ask and it will be given to you”? this sermon walks through Luke 11:1–13, unpacking the Parable of the Friend at Midnight and revealing the hidden truths about persistent prayer, God's generous heart, and what it means to pray with "shameless audacity."

As Jesus is walking with His disciples, they ask Him an important lesson, "Lord, teach us to pray." With an example prayer and a parable, Jesus teaches us a fundamental aspect of Christian life. We pray because Jesus prayed, because He made it a primacy, priority, and promise for us - not to do when we feel like it or at our most desperate times only - but in a committed and persistent pattern for our daily lives. And the beautiful thing is that every prayer, every knock, every ask is heard and aligns us to our Father in Heaven for our good and His glory.
