Devotion - Monday, September 24

I think it might be helpful to remember that in Acts 15 there is a division in "The Church."  Paul and Barnabas have been traveling together, telling the story of Jesus.  But a dispute arises between them and they decide to part ways.

Church divisions always bring hurt and anxiety, but they are not always of the devil.  Sometimes, they allow two very important perspectives to have central place among the faithful.  By understanding ourselves as one (united in Christ) Church, we have the confidence that God's message is being told best when received as a symphony involving many individual instruments.
