Biblical literature often puts the most important thing in the center, and Sermon on the Mount is no different. The focus point of everything Jesus tells us in this sermon is a prayer, specifically the Lord’s Prayer. While prayer has existed for centuries before Jesus comes on the scene, he shifts everything into a new perspective. We aren’t simply trying to get the attention of a far away being that may or may not care about us, but rather we are invited into an intimate relationship with our Father who is in Heaven.
