    The Lukewarm Church Of Laodecia

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Nov 17, 2019
     | 4,312 views

     | 5,563 views

    The importance of protecting the unity of the church and practical principles and steps for doing so.

    We'd like to think that the church is immune to conflict and disagreement. After all, we're all Christians here. Right? Well, don't be naive. Hopefully, we're all striving to be like Christ. But we're also humans who sometimes fall short. We say things or react before we ...read more
