The church body is unified around Christ yet diverse in so many beautiful and necessary ways.
This theme of every part of the body being important differed greatly from the “top down” hierarchal religions of the day.
God knows how to gift the church for the specific ministry opportunities prepared for them.
Apart from Christ, men tend to do what is best for them. Unified in Christ people’s God-given gifts compliment and serve one another.
Pay attention to the way God is gifting and equipping his followers together in the local church. There are specific missions of Kingdom-building ministry ahead!
Preaching unity and. diversity are imperative.
Father, you know best what is is needed to go where you are leading. Help me trust and rest in you as you gift and work through me for your glory.
