Steven Manuel talks to Jeff Davenport about finding who exactly “your people” are. What do they have to believe? Is it judgmental to curate who your family interacts with and with whom you “do life”? What is UNITY anyway??

This Week’s Episode Rundown:
0:00 Steven from the treehouse
4:00 Steven and Jeff get into the topic of Who Are Our People?, then
16:10 Steven starts into his voluminous notes. We see that separations and divisions into different groups is part of God’s way, that
23:15 the application of distinctions is important, that
24:50 purity in the home is one of His mandates for His families. This begs the question,
34:00 which beliefs are so central that we should divide and separate friendships for them?
47:50 If we do divide and separate… won’t we be cutting off people who claim Christ?
57:05 What is unity? What are we really trying to GO for as believers? And
1:04:45 How do we work toward it? If we’re really committed to Biblical unity, what will we DO?
