United We Stand, Divided We Fall
In her book Grapes of Wrath Or Grace, Barabra Brokhoff tells the story of:
A group of American tourists were taking a bus tour in Rome led by an English-speaking guide.
Their first stop was a basilica in a piazza, which was surrounded by several lanes of relentless Roman traffic.
After they were all safely dropped off, the group climbed the steps for a quick tour of the church.
Then they spread out to board the bus, which was now parked across the street from the church.
The frantic guide shouted for the group to stay together.
He hollered out to them, "You cross one by one, they hit you one by one.
But if you cross together, they think you will hurt the car!
They won't hit you."
There is always much to be said for unity, especially unity of the Spirit.

Stewardship of building - Gospel
Make disciples
God’s grace at work - Loving others
What do we think of as great?? What standards do we use?
How do we not destroy God’s building?
1. Don’t let foolishness destroy your community
Division/ Sin/ Lawsuits/ Food/ Communion/ Spiritual Gifts & Worship
The consequences of living in the flesh and not grace - perceiving grace givers as the scum of the earth
attachment slide
what are you pursuing?
human standards for greatness
whose are you?
2. Be a steward of grace
By delighting in all you have together —ooverfloooding
It is a rare person who, when his cup frequently runs over, can thank God instead of complaining about the limited size of his mug!
—Bob Russell, pastor and author
By being faithful with the grace you have received
love where you’re at
By being present with one another
Presence - practicing presence (Geri Scazzero)
Do one thing at a time
Be present to yourself
Remember others are Thous not its
Grace
Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt,
Yonder on Calvary’s mount outpoured,
There where the blood of the Lamb was spilt
REFRAIN
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin
VERSE 2
Dark is the stain that we cannot hide;
What can avail to wash it away?
Look!
There is flowing a crimson tide;
Whiter than snow you may be today.
VERSE 3
Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
Freely bestowed on all who believe,
All who are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace receive?
