Westside Value #2: We Stick Together

 We believe we are better together. 

We protect our unity, 

we build one another up, 

we work in teams and as a team, 

and we have each other’s backs.

Ephesians 4:1-6

1 Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. 

2 Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. 

3 Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. 

4 For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called to one glorious hope for the future.

5 There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 one God and Father of all, who is over all, in all, and living through all.

MY ROLE AS A FOLLOWER OF JESUS:

To be a KEEPER of UNITY

God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God.    -Matthew 5:9

How to Work for Peace…


“Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.”    -Ephesians 5:2

1. Be HUMBLE

2. Be GENTLE

3. Be PATIENT

4. Be LOVING

WARNING!!! SERIOUS THREAT TO UNITY: GOSSIP

1 - Go directly to the person

2 - Team up and take someone with you

3 - Take it to church leadership
