Church is a bit like a family reunion. You don’t get to pick who is invited. Family is family. The church family is sometimes just as weird, messed up, and uncomfortable as the most awkward family gatherings, but God is still at work. Each person is valued, and each person’s gifting is vital to the church. We all share one commonality: salvation. This is a bond that allows us to move past minor irritations (not sin issues) and work together for the sake of others and the furthering of the gospel.
