ImageScott Green, evangelist of the Seattle Church of Christ (ICOC) writes of unity without a document. Churches who had been part of the International Church of Christ (ICOC) structure until 2004 were presented an agreement document in 2006 authored by several prominent men in the former denomination.


The agreement called for a formal declaration of unity and shared beliefs. Although many churches from the ICOC “signed” this document, some did not and there was concern that there would be more splits and disunity. Scott tells us that the Vancouver Church of Christ (who did not sign) and Seattle (who did sign) are “build[ing a] better partnership” despite the lack of a formal agreement between them.

Psalm 133:1 How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! With or without a treatise of unity in the relationship, working together as God' s children certainly makes Him happier than not working together.

Thanks to Kelcy Hahn for linking to Scott's blog and alerting us to this encouraging news.
