When we become unified, we become stronger. God has given us many examples as to how we are to live our lives, and coming together with other Christians is very important. It can be difficult to engage ourselves with other cultures and belief systems, especially when we are working strictly as individuals. However, Christ has made it clear throughout scripture and His example here on Earth that we need to be working together as one body. By doing this, we are going to be able to reach more people and share God's word with others who are in need of it. Being unified in Christ is such a wonderful and important thing, and I am grateful that I get to be part of His body of believers. His calling for my life is one that I want to embrace and take very seriously. I hope that through engaging with other Christians, and putting myself out into the world, I will be able to find direction and guidance to achieve the things that I set out to do.
As I have spent time reading Disunity in Christ, I have found it to be very helpful. Cleveland has introduced many good and important topics throughout her book, and I am thankful that I could read about them and apply them to my life. I know that my life has been further shaped in a positive way because of her words displayed in this book, and she talked about a lot of tough issues. It is very beneficial for Christians to be thinking about these ideas and allowing them to become common aspects of life to think about. Cleveland has demonstrated the importance of focusing on changing the negative issues in society. As I have continued learning throughout my life, I recognize how much of a blessing it is to be able to join together with other Christians and work towards bringing God glory and praise. I will take the lessons that I have learned from this book and apply them to my future learning and experiences.
