In this sermon on unity from the "Domino Effect" series, Karl explores how Paul's letter to the Ephesians reveals unity as God's plan from the beginning. Drawing from Ephesians 1:10 , he explains that God's purpose was "to bring unity to all things in heaven and earth under Christ." While the world naturally tends toward division and decay, Christ came to create "one new humanity" (Ephesians 2:15 ) by breaking down barriers between people.

Karl emphasizes that unity doesn't mean uniformity—like four-part harmony in singing, unity harnesses our differences for God's kingdom. Paul instructs believers to "keep the unity of the Spirit" (Ephesians 4:3) through humility, gentleness, patience, and bearing with one another in love. The challenge for Christians today is to prioritize unity over being right, to speak truth in love, and to remember that our unity is built not on opinions or preferences but on our shared identity in Christ, who is the "one Lord" over all.
