386: Every Part Matters: Finding Your Place in the Body of Christ
In this episode, Rohan Bell explores Paul’s teaching from 1 Corinthians 12 to show why putting God first means being actively devoted to the local church. Far from passive attendance, Christian faith is lived out by contributing our gifts, valuing others, and recognising that every believer has an indispensable role in the body of Christ.
