Pentecost: It's Our Turn Now! "Polarity and Prejudice"

Building up to this point in time, forces like social media have accelerated the divide between Americans — illustrated by the many in cities who celebrated the election results, while others protested and walked away in defeat. We tend to categorize ourselves under narrow identity terms and political affiliations, which makes us more prone to judge others. However, we forget that the church calls us to unity. During a time of continual conflict and disagreement, the gospel corrects our prejudices by helping us understand that though we are all flawed, God sees everyone as deserving of dignity and recognition despite our fallen nature.
