Hard Conversations: Jesus’ Prayer for a Divided World (Week 1, John 17, Pastor Jeff McLain)

Pastor Jeff McLain started our new series, Hard Conversations, on February 1, 2026. Week 1 looks at the important prayer Jesus prays for a divided world and church. What Jesus prays about is important for the effectiveness of the church.

Hard Conversations Series
This six-week series, Hard Conversations, is about staying present with one another when life, faith, and relationships get complicated. Instead of withdrawing or reacting in moments of disagreement and difficulty, we’re exploring how God calls and equips us to remain united in love — even when we disagree.

About River Corner Church
River Corner Church is a Spirit-led, simple church community of Jesus followers, nestled in the countryside of Conestoga, PA. We are a people rooted in the way of Jesus, shaped by the Anabaptist tradition, and drawn together by a desire to live with purpose, humility, and quiet faithfulness. Though we gather in a peaceful setting, our community comes from all across Lancaster County.

We don’t have big lights or polished gatherings—just a desire to worship, grow, and follow Jesus in everyday life together. We meet each Sunday at 10:00 AM in a simple meetinghouse on a quiet hillside in Conestoga. You’re always welcome here.

We are part of the LMC Network— an expanding fellowship of Anabaptist congregations proclaiming Christ to all peoples.
