The step from standing firm to launching a full-out attack is thin. When you find yourself in attack mode over a secondary issue, pause and ask: "Lord, where are you in this?"If we react to past pain by swinging to rigid extremes, it will take decades to return to modeling unity and love within the body of Christ. Instead, let's war with our tendency to elevate secondary issues and allow the Lord to shape us.Ask yourself these questions:What secondary issues have I elevated to primary importance in my faith?How might I be weaponizing truth rather than standing on it?In what ways am I judging others based on my cultural expressions of faith rather than our shared foundation in Christ?How can I better distinguish between standing firm on truth and attacking those who differ from me?
