Jacob and Esau: A Prayer Analogy

How do you approach God when you pray the Rosary? Fr. Mark-Mary begins exploring the Biblical Roots of the Our Father by comparing the story of Jacob and Esau in Genesis 32 to Jesus’ words to his Father as he teaches us the Lord’s Prayer. Understanding how we can approach God will give us a strong foundation for praying the Rosary. Today’s focus is “Our Father who art in heaven” and we will be praying one Our Father, three Hail Marys, and one Glory Be.
