Regarding the Lord’s Prayer

Found in the Sermon on the Mount, the Lord’s Prayer has been a vital tool for teaching young disciples since its inception. With its roots in both Matthew and Luke, this prayer not only serves as a script for our conversations with God but also provides a profound framework for understanding our relationship with Him.

As Christian parents, we have the privilege of raising our children in the ways of the Lord. Discover how prayer, personal faith, and grace can nurture your children’s faith and help them grow into devoted followers of Christ.
