Why do we have so many different denominations of Christian churches? What is gained and lost with so many divisions, drawing lines in the sands? This question comes from the Patreon group as Sarah wonders why we insist on fracturing when the promise of the new heavens and new earth seems to be unity. What are we missing that we can't begin forging that unity now?

Mentioned in the episode:

• Columbine by Dave Cullen
