Who is the Father? The Father is God, the first person of the Trinity. The Father sent The Son (Jesus) to die for our sins, and through The Spirit He raised Jesus back to life. The Father and the Son sent The Spirit to bring people into God’s family and make us more like Jesus. If we become followers of Jesus, The Father who is Jesus’ Father, will become our Father as well.

When someone repents of their sins and puts their trust in Jesus for the forgiveness of their sins The Father becomes their Father.

Discuss as a family/group what are some benefits of having God as “our father”?

Discuss as a family/ group do you have trouble viewing God as your father? If so, what do you think makes that difficult?

Pray together as a family/group to The Father thanking him for adopting us as His children.

One of the great things about telling our friends about Jesus is that when a friend of ours becomes a Christian they are no longer just a friend. They are now family. Who is one friend of yours who doesn’t know Jesus? Pray together as a family/group for opportunities to tell this friend about Jesus.

Notice how when Jesus teaches us to pray it is to the Father. Discuss as a family/group what we can learn about having a relationship with “Our Father” from this prayer?
