• We > Me
• 1. You don’t think we have any needs.

• 1. Every Christian is a MINISTER

1 Peter 2:9  //  But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

• 2. Every task is IMPORTANT
• Just

• 3. Every person is UNIQUE and NEEDED
• God’s design in me reveals His destiny for me.

1 Corinthians 12:4-8 (MSG)  //  God’s various gifts are handed out everywhere; but they all originate in God’s Spirit. God’s various ministries are carried out everywhere; but they all originate in God’s Spirit. God’s various expressions of power are in action everywhere; but God himself is behind it all. Each person is given something to do that shows who God is: Everyone gets in on it, everyone benefits. All kinds of things are handed out by the Spirit, and to all kinds of people! The variety is wonderful.
