A United Church: Blueprints - Part Two

NOTES :

Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.

Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future.

There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all, in all, and living through all.

Ephesians 4:1–6 (NLT)

BE A BRIDGE-BUILDER, NOT BURNER.

If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Romans 12:18 (NLT)

Choose UNITY over VICTORY

SPEAK LIFE, NOT HARM.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up.

Ephesians 4:29 (NLT)

Multiply ENCOURAGEMENT.

BOTTOM LINE: 
Unity isn’t something we CREATE—it’s something we PROTECT.

THE CHALLENGE:
Speak LIFE
