40 - Functioning in the Body of Christ

The Body of Christ, meeting principally as local assemblies, is God's primary vehicle for the propagation of the Gospel and the maturing of believers.

What does it mean to be a member of the Body of Christ? What does it mean to have spiritual gifts and exercise them within the Body? What is your role and purpose in the Body?

If you have a behind-the-scenes ministry in the Body of Christ, does that make you less important? Does that make your ministry less important than that of someone who has a prominent ministry within the Body of Christ?

We focus on these questions this week as we continue our series, Christ Above All: Studies in Colossians.
