Mending the Church 1
When people come into the church, they do not come in like young, raw recruits into the military who are wanting to be shaped into a fighting force. Instead, they come into the church broken, torn, ripped up and in need of healing in their lives.

Unity Comes from the Work of God
There is only one Body that experiences God’s salvation. There is not a Body of Jews and a separate Body of Gentiles and then among the Gentiles a Body of Blacks and a Body of Whites and a Body of Hispanics and a Body of Asians. There is one body.
Unity Comes from the Nature of God
As helpful as Christian programs are, as great as Christian music is, as wonderful as different kinds of leadership in the church is, we must go deeper to find and experience the unity that the Spirit of God creates in the church. Unity in churches and among churches is based upon God Himself.
Patience, Tolerance, Diligence in Unity
Don’t you wish there was a patience pill? But there isn’t, and God wants to build patience in our lives. How does he do that? That’s what we will talk about today.
All Humility and Gentleness
