When you view the world as full of uncertainty, you can easily reach for things that eliminate that dis-ease. But with a trust in God's promised future, we have patience.
A New Community Spirit - sermon Aug 1
You can tell when you come into a room if it's really a welcoming and inclusive place, or if there's a "spirit" in the room that is negative. Churches, like every group of people, are not immune from negativity, but there are things we, as individuals, can do to better the group, and build each other up. Based on Ephesians 4:1-3
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. - Ephesians 4:1-3
