Lesson 4: Called To A Team

February 23 & 24, 2019

 

Calling:  An invitation to stand in a divinely appointed position

 

My Calling Is Connected To Your Calling

 

Hebrews 3:1 Brothers and sisters, you are holy partners in a heavenly calling. So look carefully at Jesus, the apostle and chief priest about whom we make our declaration of faith. God’s Word Translation 

 

We Exist To See A City Connected With God

 

We’re Better Together

 

We’re Part Of A Whole

 

1 Corinthians 12:12 Our bodies have many parts, but the many parts make up only one body when they are all put together. So it is with the “body” of ChristLiving Bible

 

The Feeling That We Aren’t Needed

 

1 Corinthians 12:15 If the foot says, “I am not a part of the body because I am not a hand,” that does not make it any less a part of the body. Living Bible

 

1 Corinthians 12:18 But that isn’t the way God has made us. He has made many parts for our bodies and has put each part just where he wants itLiving Bible

 

The Feeling That We Don’t Need Anyone Else

 

1 Corinthians 12:21 The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.” Living Bible

 

1 Corinthians 12:22 And some of the parts that seem weakest and least important are really the most necessaryLiving Bible 

 

1 Corinthians 12:27 Now here is what I am trying to say: All of you together are the one body of Christ, and each one of you is a separate and necessary part of itLiving Bible

 

We Can Only Grow Together
