May 24, 2026 “Unity Among Diversity” Pastor Josh Gmitter

About this episode

Pastor Josh Gmitter discusses the importance of unity among diverse opinions within the church regarding war and pacifism, emphasizing love and support among believers.

In this sermon, the speaker reflects on Memorial Day by navigating the diverse opinions within the church regarding war, pacifism, and military service. Drawing from historical quotes and scriptural tensions—such as the contrast between David and Solomon—the message emphasizes that while believers may hold different political or theological viewpoints, they must remain united through the love of Christ. Ultimately, the congregation is encouraged to move past disputes over non-essential matters, support one another, and find common ground in the ultimate sacrifice of Calvary and the shared mission of the church.
