"And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it, if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now then you are Christ's body, and individually members of it." 1 Corinthians 12:26-27
"…let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more, as you see the day drawing near." Hebrews 10:24-25
Disconnected I die. Without Jesus I have no love, no joy, no zest for life. Since I have known Him, life has been full. But to truly know Jesus, I must be connected to the "body of Christ" which ministers to me and with me, the way He would. I would stray away without: the preaching of Pastor Tim, the worship led by Pastor Bryan, the music of the praise team, the praying with Tom Cupps, the fellowship and friends in my Life Group, and my Boys Brigade partners, Tim and Ben. I cannot make it alone. I need the love and spiritual gifts of all of the members of Greenridge.
Connected I thrive! My highest priority is to stay connected to Jesus and the members of His body. I am so grateful for the "body of Christ" at Greenridge. Thank you! I encourage each of you to check your connectedness. If you are missing worship, not in a Life Group, or not serving in some capacity, you are missing a great blessing. And we are missing a blessing only you can give. Get connected!
