A Unity that Requires Supernatural Empowerment
by Wayne Stapleton
Renewal Church, Warren, MI
Unity does not come from ignoring differences.
Unity does not come from avoiding people because they are different.
Unity will not be ushered in by us mouthing Bible verses but following them up with little action.
Real biblical unity will come from entering into tough conversations with people whom we don’t merely go to church with, but people whom we love. The kind of unity Jesus wants is unity not based upon uniformity or complete agreement but love in the midst of human difference.

Missionary of the Week
Mayette Ativo-Bueno, National Missionary, Director of Bicol Center for Christian Leadership in the Philippines. Mayette directs the Bicol Center for Christian Leadership. Now in its eighteenth year, BCCL seeks to serve and empower the body of Christ, not only through theological and pastoral instruction in the classroom but also by mobilizing workers for the harvest field, providing resources for pastors and churches, and being a model of servant leadership among the many churches it serves. Pray that BCCL would be able to expand their facilities to increase their ministry efforts. Also pray for Mayette’s ministry as she strives to know each student and serve them directly and intentionally.
