Day 4: Reconnect with The Lord's Prayer

Welcome to Day Four of our 10 Day Spiritual Journey. Today we spend time looking afresh at The Lord's Prayer.

The Lord’s Prayer is not just a mystic’s prayer but a doer’s prayer, an activist’s prayer. In a nutshell, prayer is a relationship with God which inspires us to act, “as we witness to a wild, radical, subversive, dynamic, and life-changing faith”. The Lord’s Prayer demands nothing less than a revolution, as we move to view the world through the eyes of the one who gave us words.

This is a quote from a Church Times review of Living the Prayer: The everyday challenge of the Lord’s Prayer by Revd Dr Trystan Owain Hughes.

Do you consider The Lord's Prayer to be radical and subversive? Or has it become so familiar that any meaning is lost? In the video below, recorded during our Day of Prayer, Trystan sets out why The Lord's Prayer is a revolutionary call to bring God’s light to the most hopeless and desolate situations.

We invite you to look afresh at The Lord's Prayer and ask yourself in what way is God calling me to action?
