What makes the difference between churches that thrive and those that constantly split? In this powerful continuation of our church values series, Pastor Stephen Martin joins Pastor Daniel Hayworth and Pastor Nathan Brown to explore the critical value of relational unity.

Building on last week's foundation of spiritual family, the pastors dive deep into what it means to maintain unity without demanding uniformity. Using the metaphor of musical harmony, they illustrate how different people can work together to create something beautiful - but only when they're willing to confront conflict rather than avoid it.

✅ What You'll Discover:

✅ The profound meaning of Psalm 133 and why unity literally commands God's blessing

✅ How Mount Hermon's geography teaches us about unity flowing to others

✅ Why "diversity is our strength" isn't biblical - but unity in Christ is

✅ The difference between peacekeeping (avoiding conflict) and peacemaking (resolving it)

✅ Practical strategies for addressing conflict in marriage, family, and church

✅ Why binding yourself to difficult relationships produces spiritual growth
