Jesus prayed to the Father in John 17 that the church would be one, even as he and the Father are one, and said that our love for one another would be a sign to the world that we belong to Jesus. Christian unity is a basic part of Christian witness, and yet the church is often divided. How can we pursue unity in such a moment as this?
In this sermon on Philippians 2:1–13, Pastor Luke Herche teaches that Christian unity is doctrinal, objective, and practical, a fact we must rest in by our union with Christ, and also an ideal that we must strive for. Pastor Luke draws out from the text six keys to practical Christian unity: begin with grace, look to the model, remember the gospel, practice the pattern, hold on to hope, and rely on the Spirit.
