This Week’s Bible Story

Jesus Teaches About Prayer (Luke 11:1-13) One day, Jesus was with his friends and one of them asked, “Lord, how should we pray?” So Jesus started his prayer by praising God! The second thing Jesus prayed for was something he needed — food! The third thing Jesus prayed for was forgiveness. The last thing Jesus prayed for was the courage to obey God and say “No!” to sin.
