For more than thirty years, Ingleside has been a remarkably united church. Across those three decades, we have learned some important truths about our unity – some of which I am recounting in this series of articles.

For more than thirty years, Ingleside has been a remarkably united church. Across those three decades, we have learned some important truths about prizing and protecting our unity – some of which probably ought to be highlighted again now.

So, as we walk in joyful obedience to the Lord, I am asking him to withhold no good thing from us. I am asking him to help us flourish and prosper in every way...
