The topic for the sermon this week is unity– Jesus calls for unity among his disciples both present and future, and Rev. Dr. Stephen Caine acknowledges an uncomfortable conundrum: what does this unity that Jesus calls for look like? Because it’s sure hard to see any unity– church or elsewhere– right now, and things certainly weren’t unified when Jesus first offered up this hopeful prayer that we might as unified with each other as he was with God. What does that unity look like? Will we ever successfully live up to Jesus’s optimistic challenge?
