Every Part Matters

Have you ever felt like a small cog in a massive machine, wondering if your contribution truly matters? In a powerful message drawn from 1 Corinthians 12, Pastor J illuminated God's design for the church as a living, breathing body where every member plays an indispensable role. Through the relatable metaphor of knee surgery and its ripple effects throughout the body, he demonstrated how even the parts we take for granted become glaringly important when they're compromised. Drawing from the vibrant context of ancient Corinth, Pastor J challenged the modern tendency to value visibility over faithfulness, reminding us that there are no "behind-the-scenes" people in God's eyes. His message resonated deeply with Kapahulu Bible Church's current season, where some ministries are understaffed and others await new servants to step forward. With practical applications for the church's various ministries - from coffee service to deacon work - he issued a compelling call to action: "We don't need every part to do everything - we just need every part to do something." This timely message, delivered on the cusp of the church's annual meeting, wasn't just about filling volunteer slots; it was about discovering our God-given purpose within His perfectly designed body.
