Creating a Climate of Unity

November 15, 2015

A Place to Belong | November 15, 2015
Ephesians 4:1-16 | Unity in the Church
John Greening, National Representative of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, continues our "A Place to Belong" series. John shares what is necessary for church to be unified. John shares that being unified is not merely a passive state nor is it an end in itself.  Rather it is an active commitment to work together to build up the body of Christ, the church.
Sermon Outline:

* Observe the code of conduct that suits our calling. (Ephesians 4:1-3)
* Understand the rationale that establishes our unity. (Ephesians 4:4-6)
