By the Rev. Chad Bird
Assistant Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind.

By the Rev. Dr. Charles Gieschen
Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind

By the Rev. Dr. Arthur Just, Jr.
Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind

Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples," asked one of Jesus' disciples (Luke 11:1). Jesus responded by teaching them the Lord's Prayer.
