all pulling together
of one mind, one accord
all the gears meshing
Too much to hope for
in a human enterprise
but we should be striving
for the single mind of Christ
All of us valued
all of us belonging
each of us together
living as his body
Serving with humility
all pulling together
serving in Christ’s name
all our sisters and brothers

and
second in a two-part sermon series entitled
“Sensitivity
Training II: When Church Folk Don’t Get Along.”
Peter
said he “was not preaching this sermon because we are having difficulty with
this issue. I am preaching it because I firmly believe the best time to
consider matters such as this is when tensions are not high and we can reflect
on good spiritual practices that can keep our relationships healthy. The middle part of Matthew 18 offers a good
plan for conflict resolution.”
