Team Ministry

We are ALL individuals but we are ALL called as one body.
So that means, we need to learn to do team really well, because no matter who you are, no matter what you do, we will always be connected to others; so to be effective learn the power of team ministry.

Great passage on this 1 Corinthians 12:12-27
some keys out of this passage to think about and meditate on:
  • the body is one unit (never forget that when we all come together we need to be one)
  • the body is made up of many parts (so don't complain about people who are different to you)
  • all these parts play a role (even the people that you are not sure about ... God is)
  • God has arranged the parts of the body (just as HE wants them to be)
  • there should be no division in the body (God really does want us to be in unity and get along)
  • if one part suffers we all suffer (so it is actually in our best interest to help those who need our help)
  • you are part of this body (just in case you were wondering....)
This is such an amazing passage of Scripture as it helps put us as individuals back into context. We are not unimportant, but we are not the most important, together we are all important and together we make a massive difference in changing and impacting this world for good and for God.
