Coming together as a church body can be challenging. People of many backgrounds and thoughts come together. There is bound to be disagreement and debate. Although it can be very tense and unpleasant, there can be growth and positive change that comes from the process of debating. Dissention or division, however, has no place in the church. As part of the body of Christ, we need to strive to work out our differences and be united in spite of them. We must keep in mind that what brings us together is the common purpose and calling to spread the gospel of Christ!
