Yeah.

Man, I have two different friends that I think of with this conversation who model this really well for me.

One is my friend Amanda.

And there has been multiple times where I've been in groups with her and someone will bring up something about a different church.

Her and I don't even go to the same church, but another church will be brought up or just, you know, these comments that come up in Christian circles.

And Amanda, every time, shuts it down so quick and is like...

We're all in the body of Christ and we need that church just as much as we're needed.

And she's so quick to do it.

So loving.

But it is like in her mind, she loves the bride of Christ.

And it's not just lip service.

It's not just something she says.

Like I watch her defend his bride.

Yeah.

And I've seen her do it multiple times.

Another example is my friend, Noel, who every year hosts this like get together, essentially this like women's conference is like gathering here in Ohio.

And she's so big on it, not being hosted at a church or like being a part of a denomination because she just wants to see the body of Christ come together, unified on Jesus and nothing else.

And every year when I step into it, I'm like, isn't it weird how rare this is?

Yeah.

Because we're used to going to the event that's just at our church or just with our denomination.
