Christ's Body on Mission

All week, we've explored our identity as the Body of Christ. We've seen that our unity is a gift, that every member has inestimable worth, that we desperately need each other, and that we're called to feel each other's joys and sorrows. But what is the point of all this? Is this just for our own benefit—a self-contained spiritual club? Today, we look at the final, stunning application of who we are. Paul takes all this profound theology and turns it outward, showing us that we are Christ's Body for the sake of the world.
