Easter Sunday brings us to the house of a skeptic. How does Jesus handle such a person--

The Lord's Pattern Prayer can turn into another rote recitation that loses out on its true spiritual significance.

we will find that prayer itself can be sinful- After all, the first temptations to sin for creation came in that heavenly place as Satan chose to serve himself instead of the Lord.--The same tension exists today, even as you enter heaven's palace in prayer, you will be tempted to pray in a sinful way.

People are not naturally concerned with each other, and whatever displays of good-will are often not very genuine or permanent.--How has God called us to live differently- How would your life appear different if you followed His calling to true fellowship-
