Have you ever been on a team? Maybe a football or basketball team? A band? A dance or comedy group? A planning team? No matter what kind of team you were on, I'm guessing this was true: if you did well, it's because your team members learned to work together well. The key to winning is to learn to work with team members whose strengths are different from your own. In Ephesians chapter 4, the author Paul tells us that the same thing is true about the Church. We all have unique strengths and roles to play in God's family, just like any winning team. But what does "winning" mean in the context of following Jesus? It means growth! Maturity! You and I can't grow closer to God, or grow more like Jesus, all alone. But we can grow together. Getting along won't always be easy, but it's how we'll grow — together.
