Every Part Matters | Building Up the Body (Week 2)
In Week 2 of Building Up the Body, we move from belonging to participation and ask a challenging but essential question: What does belonging look like in practice?
Rooted in 1 Corinthians 12:14–27, this message reminds us that God intentionally places every person in the church and that every part of the body matters. Participation isn’t about pressure or filling gaps — it’s about shared responsibility and spiritual health. When one part disengages, the whole body feels it; when every part contributes, the body thrives.
This message also confronts the lies that keep people on the sidelines — comparison, insecurity, and waiting for perfect clarity — and calls us toward humble obedience, where clarity often follows action.
If you’re exploring your place in the life of the church or sensing God inviting you to take a next step, this message will help frame participation not as obligation, but as part of how God forms us together.
