There are many functions as a body and the body requires every part. Scott has convinced us that God sees us as "Saints to empower," not simply as "sinners to save." One way we are empowered is by leaders who, according to chapter 4, are to equip the "saints for the work of ministry." Please join us this Sunday to discover how CCC empowers us to participate together as the body of Jesus in the world. ## Related Content ## WORSHIP WITH US No matter who you are, what your story is, or where you’re from, you are welcome here.
