The Church is the Family of God. Family means something different to a lot of people in the world than what God originally meant for it to be. The Church, is also seen through the eyes of the Apostle Paul, as a body. We cannot function properly if the body is not working in harmony with itself. When families and our physical bodies do not work in harmony that is usually considered a dysfunctional family or a sick body. If that is so, then we need to discern the body. Which means we need to go to God and ask Him what is going on. Why are we sick and dysfunctional, and then allow the Holy Spirit to show us so, we can discern the body properly and get back to what He has called the Church, Family of God, to do in the world.
