Not Another Brick in the Wall
In this message, John continues the church’s study of the Holy Spirit by shifting focus from the Spirit’s work in individual lives to His role in the broader Jesus community. Drawing primarily from Ephesians 2, he explores how Christ has destroyed the dividing wall of hostility, creating one new humanity and true unity among believers—while emphasizing that this unity is not the same as uniformity.
Using the cultural reference of Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall,” John challenges the tendency toward echo chambers and conformity in church life. He encourages independent thinking, questioning, and following the Spirit’s leading, affirming that diversity of thought within a shared mission strengthens rather than weakens the body of Christ. The sermon highlights practical application for living as a Spirit-empowered community that values both oneness in Christ and the unique contributions of each member.
