The church is God's divine design, functioning as the body of Christ with Jesus as the head. Like a human body, the church has many diverse parts that depend on each other, with each member playing a unique role according to their God-given gifts. Humility fuels this body, eliminating both superiority and inferiority complexes. God expects church members to practice the 'one another' commands found throughout the New Testament - loving, forgiving, honoring, and serving each other. As Christians, we're called not just to attend church but to be the church, living out our faith in ways that impact the world around us.
