The Atmosphere Of Unity (6 of 6)
Series: Atmosphere
Frank Damazio
Introduction: Unity is not natural in our fallen world. The enemy is at work and sin causes divisions and separation. Cohesion and unity are God's ways and are evidence of His presence. For a church to move to a new level of ministry and faith, unity is essential. It may be the difference between hitting the mark and missing the mark.

"These five fingers," says Lucy. "Individually they're nothing but when I curl them together like this into a single unit, they form a weapon that is terrible to behold." "Which channel do you want?" asks Linus. Turning away, he looks at his fingers and says, "Why can't you guys get organized like that?"
