In this week's lectionary text, the disciples ask Jesus to teach them to pray. Jesus delivers. The result? The incredible Lord's Prayer.

Adam, Kiri and Mason ask Lars:

• What is prayer, anyway? 
• Are we commanded to pray? 
• Do "muscle memory" prayers like the Lord's Prayer or Come, Lord Jesus function the same as original prayers?

You'll hear Lars explain the purpose of prayer, how badly God wants us to pray, and how God prays on our behalf in this week's conversation.
