Introduction
Our mother is our first home, our father is our first community. Mom provides a space to come home to, Dad calls us out to a great adventure in the world around us and prepares us for this new world.
Outline

A father provides our moral boundaries.
-Moral rules provide safety; if we all follow the rules, we will live with little fear
A father provides space for us to grow up.
-Jesus was telling Pharisees to come back to him but they wanted to earn their place with good works like the older son, never exercising their right to celebrate.
