Unity is supposed to be one of the defining characteristic of the church. The church is supposed to be a place where people from all walks of life "" rich or poor, successful or down-and-outers "" can come together and have unity and love for one another.

Imagine learning that the reality you see, taste, and touch isn't the true reality at all. Imagine learning that you are actually caught in the middle of an age-old war of epic proportions ��

After all, the title of "Christian" doesn't seem to mean a whole lot. We live in a "Christian" nation, but we produce the majority of the world's pornography. There seems to be a massive disconnect between the label that we slap on our chest and the situation and reality in our hearts.
