Although Jim and Lori were sorely missed this morning, Jon Slayden did an awesome job teaching!
The focus was on praying, as Jesus taught in Matthew 6:5-15 :
Verse 5 tells us what not to do and emphasizes the importance of being genuine
Verse 6 tells us what to do that brings us closer to our Heavenly Father
Verse 7 emphasizes simplicity and not being ritualistic
Verse 8 shows that there is nothing new to God; we just show Him how much we trust Him when we pray
Verses 9-13 show us how to pray: we worship first, balance boldness with respect, submit to His will, be repentant and expectant
Verses 14-15 show that we need to be forgiving as we have been forgiven
