Discipleship 12: Breaking Dysfunction

James Douglas

In this episode, we explore John 17:20-21, where Jesus prays for unity among believers. We discuss how disconnection leads to dysfunction in the Church, hindering spiritual growth and unity. Using the analogy of the body, we emphasize the importance of staying connected in community and obeying Jesus’ command to love one another.

With insights from Francis Schaeffer, we highlight how our love for each other is a powerful witness to the world. We also explore practical ways to live out the “one another” commands through groups like Sunday School and House to House, encouraging believers to not just join but commit to building a united, loving community.
