Great Question: Jesus vs Denomination?

Great Question 3: Jesus vs Denomination? – Ken Wetmore

(Part 1) How do we, as a church, stay focused on Jesus when so many in our denomination believe that our mission is to fixate on major doctrinal issues, political hot potatoes, and/or cultural preferences?

(Part 2) As someone not raised Seventh-day Adventist, I have embraced the warmth and freedom I have found at WholeLife church. However, I have heard that our church is different from other Adventist churches. What am I missing if this is not the norm?


#WholeLifeReflections for this week:

  • Why do you attend WholeLife?
  • How are you furthering the mission of WholeLife?
  • Do you view other churches as competitors or partners?
  • When others disagree with you, is your goal to understand their point of view or to win the debate? Is there someone with whom you need to be a better listener?
  • Are you comfortable with having friends who have different perspectives? Does your circle of friends reflect diversity?
