The church is like a body: each believer is a necessary, contributing part. The church is like a flock: we’re sheep prone to wander, constantly in need of care and protection, led by a benevolent Shepherd, Jesus Christ. The church is the temple of God: not a building, but a spiritual temple. God has chosen to dwell within sinners saved by His grace! In this message, we’ll be reminded that the church is a spiritual family, and our relationships best reflect God’s heart when they are intensely familial. Even when sin is confronted among believers, relationships should be flavored with familial love, respect, and integrity.
