What one gift or skill do you have that could serve your church community this week? Who could you contact about using it?

Paul’s metaphor of the church as a body (1 Corinthians 12:12-14) revolutionizes how we view both unity and diversity in the church. Like a physical body, each part is different yet essential, independent yet interconnected. This image confronts both our tendency toward individualism (“I don’t need the church”)and our pressure toward uniformity(“everyone should serve like I do”). In God’s design, diversity strengthens rather than threatens unity.
