“By and large, our impaired orthopraxy results from segregation. Siloed Christianity robs its participants by depriving them of fellow believers and their theological perspectives. The upshot is stark: We do not segregate due to theological conflict; we are in theological conflict due to willful segregation. If we recognize this, then integration, though counterintuitive, is the obvious solution. We must sacrificially run toward, not away from, one another. Integration confronts corporate ignorance by exposing us to theological ideas and cultural contexts other than our own. In our siloed condition, we have an impaired view of the mission field, so we are falling short of our kingdom potential.”
