Stronger Together: A Gospel Lens on Unity

We most brilliantly reflect God’s glory to the world when we are united in love under the lordship of Jesus Christ across lines of difference. A persistent question is, “how do we get there?” Take this journey with Maria Garriott’s Stronger Together. This book’s theological depth and practical wisdom will equip you to grow and change into a more magnificent reflection of our beautiful God.

In Stronger Together, Maria increases our thirst for God’s Story where pain is not minimized and hope of renewal is our promised future and present pursuit. Tremble not. Dive in. Read and grow STRONGER in love and unity TOGETHER!

Stronger Together is a courageous book that the Church needs. In an ecclesiastical environment often sharply divided by politics and presumption…Garriott enters in. She is unafraid to speak into the pain that besets our society and culture – with Jesus and his good news. And she graciously appeals to the Church to consider past sins. Her only loyalty is the gospel, and this lends to balanced reason. I gladly endorse this book.

Maria Garriott’s deeply personal, honest and vulnerable writing compels readers to reflect on their own journeys, successes, and failures toward unity. Stronger Together encourages us to continue to lean in, despite the many ongoing challenges of reconciliation. I have learned much from Maria, for which I am grateful to the Lord. This book serves as an important reminder to embrace our collective call toward Christ-centered unity.
