Pastor John Isaacs spoke at Kingsway Community Church about experiencing God in the church through unity in the body of Christ. He discussed how the metaphor of the body reveals that every member is joined together, valuable, gifted, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to serve. As members of the body, we experience fellowship, ministry to one another, and the glory of God. True unity is not uniformity, but having oneness with diversity through humility, kindness, and forgiveness as defined in scripture. Practicing unity requires serving one another, accepting our differences, and preserving it by showing humility, gentleness, patience, and love.
