Should Christians agree on everything?

Some beliefs are essential to the Christian faith. Others are important convictions that may determine which church we join. Still others are preferences that should never divide believers.

In this episode, we discuss how to distinguish primary doctrines from secondary issues and personal opinions. We talk about which beliefs are central to the gospel, how Christians should respond when someone rejects those truths, and why speaking the truth in love requires both courage and humility.

We also examine how disagreements about baptism, church structure, worship styles, spiritual gifts, and other secondary issues should affect Christian relationships, and why we must be careful not to turn our preferences into biblical commands.
