It's the most famous prayer in Christianity. Almost anyone can say it off by heart. But how well do we really understand what Jesus is telling us when he says, "This then is how you should pray?"

Week 1 of Our Father

Teacher: Megan Stibrich

First there was a garden, and everything was perfect. Humanity walked and lived in wholeness with God. But then sin entered the story and imperfect humans could no longer live in the perfect garden. Later, God formed a nation to be God’s people, and a temple was built to remind people of how good it was to live with God. But a curtain was hung to keep people from entering into the holiest part of the temple, where God was believed to dwell because imperfect people could still not walk and live in the presence of their perfect God. However, this is not the end of the story, and one day, a cross would change everything.


Easter

Teacher: Tyler Stibrich


Join Damascus Road for a special Easter Sunday and the story of The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross, and how we can walk and live in wholeness with God again.

The world tells us: “Do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't hurt anybody else.” A basic starting point for not being a terrible human being, but this view of immorality is horizontal – defined by disjointed relationships with others – rather than vertical – defined by a disjointed relationship with God. The Bible teaches us that immorality and sin are far more about our disjointed relationship with God that then bleeds into our relationships with others. In order to find freedom from sin in our lives and the destruction it causes, we need to understand what sin actually is – and cultivate a vision of the beauty of whole relationships with God and others.
