- Read Jesus’ prayer for unity among believers in John 17:20-23. How can we pursue this unity in our current political climate?
- Share an example of when you’ve been able to listen to someone with a different political view (or, when you’ve not listened as well as you wanted). What did you learn?
- Read Ephesian 6:11-13. Discuss the truth that “the real enemy is not flesh and blood.” How does this change the way we approach political disagreements?
- What would it look like to encourage one another to avoid the temptation of putting political allegiances before our allegiance to Christ?
- Reflect on Sam’s statement that “oneness does not mean sameness.” Do you agree or disagree, and why? What does true unity in diversity look like?
