This week, we're reflecting on John 17:20\u201323, where Jesus prays not only for His disciples, but for all who would believe in Him. His prayer wasn't for comfort or success. It was for unity. Jesus prayed that we would be one, united in Him and united with one another, so that the world would know God's love through the way we love each other. In a world that often feels divided, we have an opportunity to become bridge builders, reflecting Christ's love in our families, churches, workplaces, and communities. As you listen, consider this reflection question: How can I be a bridge builder rather than a divider in my family, church, workplace, or community? After the Scripture reading, you'll have an opportunity to pause for personal prayer and reflection before returning to pray the Our Father together. \ud83d\udcd6 Scripture: John 17:20\u201323 This week, ask God to show you one practical way to build unity, extend grace, and reflect His love to someone around you.
