Hatred based on race, ethnicity, nationality, language, and gender threatens global harmony. Fear and misunderstanding fuel divisions, creating barriers to recognizing our interconnectedness. Today, let's reaffirm our commitment to breaking these barriers. Our shared experiences of love, joy, sorrow, and hope bind us, transcending borders and cultures.

"While Barth’s vision of unity emphasizes shared engagement with the Word of God, it also acknowledges the complexities of relationships within the Christian community. Unity is not the absence of differences or disagreements; instead, it thrives on the ongoing tension between individual paths and communal life. As individuals navigate their identities within the broader community, conflict often arises. This tension, however, does not necessarily threaten unity. Instead, it can catalyze personal and communal growth. Ellen Ott Marshall observes that “to be is to be in conflict,” suggesting that growth and transformation often begin amid struggle. Conflicts can disrupt relationships, erode trust, and impact us emotionally and psychologically. Yet, they are essential for self-reflection and gaining an objective environmental perspective. Conflict catalyzes reevaluating our beliefs and customs, pushing us toward deeper understanding and development.12 Conflict, as a natural and necessary part of life, allows us to constructively challenge the traditions that shape our identities, fostering resilience and adaptability. Ultimately, because the community forms a singular unity, it must be acknowledged as such.13 Conflict does not imply physical confrontation or self-attack. Instead, it involves stepping out of your comfort zone and critically examining your culture, beliefs, and views. Life and your familiar cultural context are different, and it is essential to recognize this distinction. While one’s familiar Christian community and environment may seem generative, they may also hinder the potential of understanding other cultures and expressions of the Christian faith. Therefore, one should use conflict constructively.14 If tradition impedes our ability to perceive reality accurately, we must engage in dialogue and be willing to challenge it. We should not fear new environments, identities, or challenges, even if they cause friction with or resistance from our old community. Understanding a solution is one aspect, but having the courage to engage with and address conflict is another challenge entirely." #spiritualintelligence #SQ21 #1Developselfawareness #4Developasenseofinterconnectedness
