8.6 Back-to-School LITURGY of Love Over Fear - a podcast by George Stull

What a special Sunday gathering to start a new school year! We created some sacred space for prayer: for our schools, teachers, administrators, counselors, support staff, coaches, SRO’s, custodians, bus drivers, parents, & students. Some members of our community lead us in some beautiful ‘prayers of the people.’

SLIDE GEORGE READ IN THE GATHERING

I have come to think that much public prayer in the church is careless and slovenly, and that what passes for spontaneity is in fact lack of preparation. Thus, I believe that public prayers must be "well-said" in an artful way, not to call attention to the artistry itself but to mobilize and sustain the attention of the praying community.
