But now [as things really are], God has placed and arranged the parts in the body, each one of them, just as He willed and saw fit [with the best balance of function]. If they all were a single organ, where would [the rest of] the body be? But now [as things really are] there are many parts [different limbs and organs], but a single body. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” But quite the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are [absolutely] necessary; and as for those parts of the body which we consider less honorable, these we treat with greater honor; and our less presentable parts are treated with greater modesty, while our more presentable parts do not require it. But God has combined the [whole] body, giving greater honor to that part which lacks it, so that there would be no division or discord in the body [that is, lack of adaptation of the parts to each other], but that the parts may have the same concern for one another. And if one member suffers, all the parts share the suffering; if one member is honored, all rejoice with it.

The church is a community of redeemed image-bearers who are united by the Holy Spirit and modeled after the life of Christ. When Jesus saves us, he saves us into this community where we learn together how to live in and reflect the light of God into the world. This Bible Plan is part 7 of 8 designed to go along with Feed’s “Foundations” small group series.
The Call is a Bible Plan that was birthed at the Zero Con. It is a 3-day journey focused on answering God's call to go and share His love in the online and offline world; recognising the significance of each individual in the body of Christ, and using our gifts and talents to serve others with excellence, starting where we are at.
When God’s people fall and need a helping hand, our Saviour is quick to respond and set them on their feet again. A word of encouragement, a moments time, and a heart of love and compassion are the key ingredients for a healing balm. We are called to be faithful, not judgemental. Let us be merciful, for we too have received mercy.
