Episode 29 - Word Of The Day: Unity
/

It’s always easy to call for unity when your team is the one that’s won. It’s much harder to have a spirit of unity when you feel like you’re the person who isn’t being listened to and whose ideas aren’t being valued.

But perhaps unity shouldn’t be so conditional. While unity does have its limits (namely truth, justice, and morality), we are often too willing to die on just about every hill we can. Still, discernment is required.

In this episode, we’re looking at a couple of key conflicts in the New Testament to see what they mean for our engagement in our current political landscape, as well as in our churches, workplaces, and families.
