Here at UniteBoston we are continually seeking to understanding how we can help build up the body of Christ and nurture God’s work in Boston and beyond!

In his new book entitled The Unexpected Christian Century, Scott W Sunquist discusses some of the more recent developments in Christian spirituality. I find his diagram visually depicting the body of Christ to be very helpful, especially its reference to our forefathers as the roots of Christianity, and Jesus Christ as the trunk holding together the various branches of the Christian faith.

In his blog post “Learning from the Global Church,” Pete Scazerro makes some great recommendations for all Christians:  “First, may you and I be listening to the Holy Spirit and how He wants to extend the mission of Jesus in our day! Secondly, let’s be prayerful and loving towards the whole church. We are part of a larger church in the world that is much larger and more diverse than we could ever imagine. May we increasingly focus on our unity in Jesus (Jn.17:20-26). And thirdly, we have much we can learn from our brothers and sisters who are so very different than us.”

Amen, Pete! Click here to access Pete Scazerro’s full blog post:
