Alien Ambassaor Series

Contributed by John Sears on Dec 12, 2013

Unity

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jan 29, 2015

We can’t convert the world from its emphasis on self to a life in Christ unless we are united in purpose-unless we love one another. When we ignore the will of God in order to have our own way, the result is discord and disunity. Unity begins with us.
