Passionate Discipleship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
When we think about our skills and passions and tie them to ministry, it makes room for weaving together others’ skills and passions as well. More than filling roles, it creates unity in the Body of Christ when we work together to bring forward a mission and vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When we come together in unity as believers, and fully believe and lean into God as we love others, His light shines bright so that the whole world can know that He is who He says He is. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Remember this as you fill the roles you need. It’s more than putting someone in a “missing role” or gap. It’s giving them space in the body to do the things that only they can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When we come together to serve as a team, gap are filled, and real ministry can happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through our partnership with our volunteers<\/a>, God can move to make Himself known. As we pour into them, and they pour into us, we get the opportunity to grow together as passionate disciples of Jesus. And that is a wonder to behold. <\/p>\n\n\n\n God makes Himself known through His Body loving and serving together. It brings to mind Jesus’ prayer in John 17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one\u2014I in them and you in me\u2014so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”<\/p>\nJohn 17:20-23 NIVTM<\/sup><\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n When we come together in unity as believers, and fully believe and lean into God as we love others, His light shines bright so that the whole world can know that He is who He says He is. And they know that we are His disciples when we love each other well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n His wonder shines when we follow and love well. His wonder shines in our ministry together\u2014with and to our volunteers<\/a>, with and to the Body of Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When we come together in unity as believers, God’s light shines so bright that the whole world can know that He is who He says He is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4167,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"How Serving Together Shows Us God's Wonder - Wonder Ink","_seopress_titles_desc":"When we come together in unity as believers, God's light shines so bright that the whole world can know that He is who He says He is.","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"blog_topic":[26,28],"blog_type":[13],"ppma_author":[22],"class_list":["post-5901","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","blog_topic-leadership","blog_topic-volunteers","blog_type-blog"],"authors":[{"term_id":22,"user_id":1,"is_guest":0,"slug":"wonder-ink","display_name":"The Wonder Ink Team","avatar_url":{"url":"https:\/\/wonderink.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/wonder-ink-favicon.svg","url2x":"https:\/\/wonderink.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/wonder-ink-favicon.svg"},"author_category":"","user_url":"https:\/\/wonderink.org","last_name":"Ink","first_name":"Wonder","job_title":"","description":"The Wonder Ink Team is made of ministry volunteers, leaders, and experts who work with David C Cook.
