God Talk #1 - September 14, 2008 AM
Dave Marttunen
Today, Pastor Dave is starting the first of a 3 part series on Prayer. For many people, prayer is a mystery. They may have learned a prayer poem as a child… “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep…” Ancient, odd (what kid talks to anyone-adult or peer-like that?), and mysterious (death can happen, but what kid really thinks about that each day?) Others may have encountered prayer as something offered in a church service and it was prepared, formal, and ancient; it unused language like Thee, Thou, and other odd word endings. Rarely does prayer in public or the nursery inspire the hearers to say, “Wow, I want to talk to God like that!” This is the goal of these 3 messages titled “God Talk”: to want to pray and to learn to pray well.
