Even among the Christian denominations, there’s a lot of bickering and petty disagreements which are pretty trivial and of no real consequence. Personally, I think He hopes we’ll get our act together and treat everyone with respect and tolerance, but knowing our humanity, I’m sure He also knows we’re going to mess up. Love your blog and I’ll be back!
