Summary

(Ephesians 4:1-6) Someone once said that churches are more like goat pens than sheepfolds because the people are always butting heads.  It's not supposed to be that way!  Even so, unity is not our goal.  Unity is the byproduct of being in step with the Holy Spirit.  May God help us to humbly submit to the Spirit so that we may enjoy unity in the bond of peace.
