Description
Jesus' followers are known by their love for one another, not by their actions or knowledge. Deidra Riggs explores this idea in her book One Unity in a Divided World, suggesting that putting others at arm's length is easy and can lead to division. Instead, she encourages readers to focus on reconciliation and follow Jesus' example of selfless love. Riggs shows how Jesus' sacrifice not only purchased salvation but also set an example for us to follow. By understanding our security in God's love, we are free to love others lavishly, both in what we do and what we don't say or endure. This book offers inspiring examples of loving done well and encouragement to build bridges with those around us. For anyone seeking unity in their church, family, or community, One Unity in a Divided World provides practical guidance on how to make the first move towards reconciliation and cultivate selfless love.
