Ephesians 4:15-16 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. 

Reflection 

God’s vision for the church is not just growth in numbers, but growth in maturity. As each part speaks truth in love and does its work, the whole body is strengthened. Maturity is formed in community, where love shapes how we speak, serve, and support one another. 

Application 

Today, ask God to show you how to build others up with encouragement, truth, and love. Pray that we would grow into a mature and healthy body of Christ at The District Church. Lift up District Kids and District Students—that God would use these ministries to equip parents and raise up a generation of fully devoted followers of Jesus.
