Episode 1
In this episode, we unpack the first word of The Lord’s Prayer “Our”, consider its implications, and walk through a prayer exercise to put it into practice.
- In Greek, the ‘our’ is plural, and can be translated literally as ‘the Father of us’, which speaks to the shared and communal bond we all have as humans, that is, we are all made in the image of God. God is literally “our” Father.
- When we pray “Our Father”, we are reminded that Jesus didn't intend for us to pray in isolation of others, but instead, pray as someone who acknowledges they are part of a spiritual community.
This episode of More about Officership is brought to you by our leadership resource: the Shape of Calling, a 36-page workbook design to help you explore, understand, and responding to calling.
