Pharisees appear on nearly every page of the Gospels, yet little is known about where they came from, or especially, why they’re so hostile to Jesus. So if you were to create one of these beings out of thin air, what ingredients would you need? You’d start with a strong spiritual foundation, throw in a hearty sprinkling of egotism, and then finally, a failure to see the big picture. Poof! You’ve got a pharisee.

CloseJohn 17 is a masterclass in prayer, but few of us take the time to really examine what it talks about. Jesus prays for Himself, His Apostles, and the disciples at large, but He also prays for the work that He's engaged in, as well as for the Apostles to develop strong trust in God's Word. And unity. He prays for the church to be united in purpose as a powerful testimony to the world. Is that what we're praying for? If not, maybe a quick re-examination of what Jesus prays about can help us focus on what we should be doing with our own life.
