Jesus' Prayer for Unity (John 17:20-23)

We meet Sunday mornings at New Traditions Elementary School! You can find more information about our Sunday gatherings on this page.

Summary

Unity appears to be scarce in the world around us today in politics, culture, etc. Jesus prayed for unity for believers in John 17. Though not apparent as we might hope, Jesus' prayer is being answered. Hear Dave preach about unity today as Jesus prayed for it in John 17.

John 17:20-23

20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21 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. 22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, 23 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.
