Interconnected Body Of Believers
- The church is pictured as an interconnected body where every member's experience affects the whole.
- Suffering or honor in one part impacts all parts because every member matters.
Back Pain As A Visual Example
- David Platt uses his own back pain to illustrate how one hurting part affects the whole body.
- He likens physical suffering to how a single member's pain burdens the entire church.
Step Into Suffering And Rejoice Intentionally
- Identify someone in your local church who is suffering and step into their pain with prayer and presence.
- Also intentionally rejoice with those who are honored so the whole body shares their joy.
