Do you ever drift, feel disconnected from your church family or isolated by something you can’t quite identify? What’s the root cause of division between people in the church? How do we nurture unity and keep it thriving? We claim to value in unity, but do our lives and our relationships with each other in this room reflect that? Are we protecting unity, or is it being compromised by entitlement & selfishness with what God gives us for His purpose? Do we want a community where no one is more deserving than another—or just say we do? Well here are more tough questions that expose what we really want: Is church just a Sunday obligation, or a true family? Are we welcoming to everyone, or only those who fit in our culture? Do some feel more valued here than others? Are you here because you need or want something, or are you here because you desire to give something? Are we hoarding God’s blessings, or using them to serve others with generosity? These are tough questions and the fact is, unity is an easy word to pronounce even venerate but it’s not so easy to achieve. It's under constant attack. I think today’s story in our series on Ruth reveals a critical secret to transformational unity among God’s people.
