Team Unity
The necessity of team unity
–John 17:20-23
“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their
word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that
they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The
glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as
we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so
that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved
me.”
