I think what you and others are experiencing is the failure of faith as a primary unifier in Christ. Faith changes us, but it doesn't give us that foundation we seek--it's like the scaffolding around the house that is love and hope is like the floorplan that we look forward to making reality.
I've been exploring a certain doctrine of power and glory lately that I think will apply to this at some point--we'll see. Hang in there.

Thank you for this- your writing helps make sense in this confusion and also helps name some of the truths that are being missed elsewhere.
Melissa, thank you so much for reading and for saying so!
