on Charles Darwin’s religious views. You may be surprised
at what you learn!

These are commitments that we take on prayerfully.
We call on our faithful friends here in Chattanooga, in our wider church, and across the whole Body of Christ, to do the same, so that we might embody the prayer Christ had for his Disciples: That we might all be ONE (John 17:21).
