Being part of the body of Christ. MP3

The New Testament again & again describes Christians as a body.
A body with Jesus Christ as the head, & then each of us being all the seperate parts that make up a body.
So just as our physical bodies are made up of arms, legs, hands, feet, ears, eyes, mouth etc, so to the body of Christ, the Church.
How we fit into that body, & what our role is within the body is what we all need to look at & learn.
And just as a physical body can get sick, so too the body of Christ, if we are not on guard for things like pride & selfishness!

The Church part 4 MP3

One of the great things about being involved in a local church is seeing & experiencing those around you discovering & using their God given gifts!
It's an eye opening, joyful time for the church, when the congregation realises their full potential, & starts to use the 'tools' that God has given them, when they start to serve, start to minister to each other & to the community around them.
But, we need to be careful that we are using God's gifts as He has planned for us, as He wants us to, not as others may suggest, or our pride may dictate!
listen along as we start to discover our call to serve!
