Psalms 111:1-10. Verse 10 KJV, if I conduct myself today so that my fear of God is no less strong than my love for him and my devotion to him, how would others notice?

Acts 22:22-23:10. Paul stakes everything on the resurrection. Am I prepared to do the same?
Mark 14:12-26. The Eucharist, the Lord’s Supper, Holy Communion—if an unbelieving college student asked me why this ritual is important to me, how would I answer?
