How to Live Your Calling: The Importance of Unity
Christian unity isn’t just an ideal or a principle. And it isn’t just global or denominational. Rather, it’s a day-to-day, matter-of-fact reality that needs to be embodied in actual Christian assemblies. This kind of unity will be realized if and only if Christians live out their calling with humility, gentleness, patience, and forbearance. It will happen only when we make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
The High Calling

Here you'll discover a range of stories that help you think deeply about how your faith relates to your work and the culture you live in.
