This week, Owen continues our prayer series with a gracious reflection on God as our Father. He highlights that approaching God in this way can be challenging, especially if our relationship with our earthly father has shaped our expectations. Owen explains that our relationship with God is not meant to be transactional but deeply relational. Understanding God as Father influences how we respond to unanswered prayer, reminding us that, as His children, we are called to trust Him. Knowing God by His fatherly nature—and by His other attributes—helps us grow in deeper relationship with Him. Ultimately, it is not about us; it is and always will be about God.

In this sermon, Phil Hopgood explores how the Christian walk can sometimes drift into legalism, even in doing good things like reading the Bible, praying, or giving. He reminds us that these are gifts from God—meant to be enjoyed in the freedom won for us through Christ’s death and resurrection—as we journey toward glory.
