This is the first of a new six-part sermon series on the Lord's Prayer. In this sermon, I talk about Jesus' promise of a reward for praying the way that he teaches. I suspect many of us haven't experienced prayer as "rewarding"—at least as much as God wants us to! I want that to change! I also talk about the privilege that we have in calling God "our Father."

Our scripture is Matthew 6:5-9.
