✦ MADE SIMPLE

Think about your body — it's one whole thing, but it's made up of so many different parts. All those parts work together to make one complete body. That's exactly how it is with Christ and his people.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

We're all different parts, but we make one beautiful whole together.
