Announcing Christian Prayer
January 11, 2019
This is an announcement that our winter Bible study will start in two weeks (the week of January 22). We will be going into a six-week series on Christian Prayer, drawing from Scripture and Tradition. Have a look at our flyer for details (here).
In the usual meaning of prayer, a person sets out to approach God, either in petition or praise. Regardless of the person’s understanding, this is no small thing. It is to enter the realm of the spiritual and to approach the Supreme Being from whom we have our being and every good gift. His nature is altogether holy in a majesty inexpressible, his power is absolute, and his glory fills the universe, though mortal minds can scarcely comprehend it. Yet he has sent us his Son to show the measure of his love for man. With infinite mercy and kindness, he beckons us to draw near. This is a wondrous thing indeed.
We hope you can join us as we begin to explore the glory of Christian prayer!
