Andy Addis: The Lord’s Prayer

The last two Tuesday Chapel services at Central Christian College have had Andy Addis as a guest speaker. He is doing a three part series on “The Lord’s Prayer”. This Tuesday will be the end of the series and we will use all we’ve learned about the Lord’s Prayer to partake in communion. Andy says that “prayer is the highest honor and greatest responsibility” for believers. He is teaching us about the Lord’s Prayer because it is an example of how to pray instead what to pray. This year, Central has an overall theme of prayer and Andy’s series about the Lord’s Prayer fits. Justin Mourn asked Andy if he would be willing to come speak for Chapel, and we were blessed with him for three weeks. Andy is always quick to mention how much he loves Central; he loves to speak here, and wants to come. The students at Central share this mutual like and appreciation of Andy.  He is very well received for many reasons. One reason is that, during his sermon he has everyone repeat words back to him so that the message can sink in.  Everyone can tell that he is doing this to benefit God and not himself, and he has been receiving emails and messages on Facebook from students that have questions proving that the students are engaged in preaching and hungry to learn more. So, anytime you have something important to share Andy, let us know and we will listen.

Come see Andy for his final sermon in a series on "The Lord's Prayer" Tuesday October 1st and join us in Communion.
