Todd Pruitt: "there's a well-known professor of systematic theology at a big name, respected seminary who has a book in which he argues that Christian prayer should only be directed to the Father."
Me, in the car, by myself: "HIS NAME IS BRUCE WARE WHY AREN'T YOU WARNING PEOPLE!?"
Honestly. It's public. He has a book out on the subject. It's hardly slander or gossip to accurately describe what he's written.
This is an excellent question. There’s a book by Bruce Ware that explains all of this [here](Father, Son, and Holy Spirit: Relationships, Roles, and Relevance https://www.amazon.com/dp/1581346689/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_nrwXBbQVNJKHC), but when it comes to prayer the gist of it is this... The typical pattern we see in scripture is that we pray TO the Father, THROUGH the Son, BY THE POWER of the Holy Spirit.
But as others have mentioned it would never be wrong to pray to the Lord Jesus or even the Spirit (though this is less common than people praying to Jesus), because they are all God, and God is who we pray to.
Hope this helps.
