God the Father

The Lord’s Prayer

Nine stops with the Father, in the prayer Jesus taught us

Jesus gave us only one prayer, and in it He taught us to call God by the most astonishing name: “Father.” Not a distant force, not an indifferent maker, but Abba — a Father who counts our hairs, runs to meet us, and has prepared a home. This pilgrimage is that one prayer, prayed slowly, a single phrase per stage. For this road you will pray the Our Father not by rushing through it, but by living inside it — letting each petition open a door into the heart of the Father who made you, and wants you home.
