Family Unity | Todd Arnett


Listen Later

In this message, we're reminded of the beautiful unity that exists within the family of God, despite our differences. The key scripture, Ephesians 2:11-22, illustrates how Jesus tore down the dividing wall of hostility between Jews and Gentiles, creating one new humanity. This serves as a powerful metaphor for our own lives - we're called to embrace our diversity while maintaining unity through our shared faith in Christ. The message challenges us to reconsider how we view our brothers and sisters in Christ, especially when we disagree. Are we rebuilding walls that Jesus destroyed? Or are we making every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit? This teaching is particularly relevant in our divided world, reminding us that our identity in Christ supersedes all other labels. As we navigate cultural tensions, we're encouraged to respond with humility, gentleness, and patience, always seeking to maintain unity through the bond of peace.
