We Need Each Other “and He gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds, and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ….” Ephesians 4:11-12

We Need Each Other APOSTLES: do things “new” PROPHETS: do things “true” EVANGELISTS: do things “now” SHEPHERDS: do things “together” TEACHERS: do things “right”

Because our Spiritual Growth Depends on It “until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes…” Ephesians 4:13-14

Because Your Calling is Bigger than You! “Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every point with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.” Ephesians 4:15-16

“…speaking the truth in love…” “By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” Jesus, John 13:35
