May They Be One Just as We Are One
from Making Friends With The Lord Jesus · host Fr. Edwin
My homily emphasizes the spiritual necessity of unity among believers. Drawing on the Gospel passage in John 17, I explain that God’s nature is indivisible and perfect, serving as the ultimate model for how Christians should relate to one another. I argue that true freedom and joy are found by associating with the Divine and overcoming the distractions of material possessions or selfish pleasures. Practical advice is offered on maintaining communal harmony through forgiveness, patience, and understanding, even when personal differences or friction arise. Ultimately, oneness with others is a vital sign of a healthy faith life, directly mirroring the relationship between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
