Everyone has different habits and opinions surrounding drugs and alcohol. God calls his followers to walk by the spirit and surrender to His will for our lives. We can’t be under the influence of the Holy Spirit and something else at the same time.

"When does human life begin?" This question can spark many emotions and can cause extreme polarization. In order to find unity on such a divise issue, we must seek what God, the Creator of life, has to say about it.

A large issue that can cause division in the church is gender identity. The issue of gender identity is not a new thing but has become extraordinarily polarizing in recent years. To bring glory to God, we must discover what scripture says about identity and choose to stand with one another in the "messy middle".

One of the issues that has created polarization within the church is sex. To seek unity on this issue, we must discover what God's created intent for sex is.

Polarizing issues can cause division in families, in the church, and in the world. To glorify God and create unity, we need to be willing to stand with others in the "messy middle” even when we disagree.

You, like Esther, are in a unique position to have a unique impact. Any position, no matter how small or large, comes with a responsibility to positively impact the lives of others.

When we choose, like Rahab, to prioritize courage over fear and align ourselves with God's purpose, we can make an extraordinary impact on the lives of others and the world around us.

Ordinary people can have an extraordinary impact if they are willing to follow God’s call.

In the simple comes Immanuel.
