When Jesus teaches us to pray “Give us this day our daily bread”, what is he really asking us to understand?

In this video, we break open the deeper meaning behind one of the most familiar lines in the Lord’s Prayer. At first glance, it seems like we’re just asking God for food…but the Church has always taught that it’s so much more.

Discover:

• Why Jesus teaches us to pray with childlike trust
• How this petition reflects both our physical and spiritual hunger
• The powerful solidarity we express when we say “give us”
• What the Catechism says about the “super-essential” bread
• Why the Eucharist is the true Bread of Life we long for

From the hunger of the body to the hunger of the soul, this reflection will deepen your understanding of how the Lord’s Prayer draws us into communion with God and with one another.

“The trust of children who look to their Father for everything is beautiful.” (CCC 2828)

👇 ABOUT 👇
We believe the Catechism is not a textbook, a collection of ideas, or a set of rules. We believe it is the faithful echo of a God who desires to reveal himself to us. The mission of Real+True is to retransform the catechism into a living voice for the modern world. We’re creating videos, stories, animations, podcasts, to unpack and unlock the catechism of the catholic church for the modern world. All these videos are free, and translated into multiple languages for the world.

Real+True is a project of OSV under the patronage of the Holy See and supported by people who join our mission.
