The Grove Church

This week in our Unity series, we discussed what it truly means to be united as followers of Jesus, especially during turbulent times in our culture. Drawing from Acts 15 and Romans 14, Charlie explored the foundations of Christian unity—anchored in who Jesus is and what He accomplished for us on the cross. We looked at the early church’s struggles over essential and nonessential beliefs, learning how to distinguish core convictions from personal preferences. With practical metaphors and biblical wisdom, we considered how our “theological house” is built and why it’s crucial to show grace when we disagree on less central matters. Charlie encouraged us to model Christ-like love and unity—to be a community where diverse perspectives don’t divide but instead strengthen our witness to a watching world. As you reflect this week, consider: what really holds us together, and how can we bring hope and kindness in moments of division? We invite you to engage these questions and journey deeper into unity with Christ and one another.
