Introduction
There is an African saying, “If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.”
The eight quality characteristics deal with what we do as a church.
What we want to look at today is how we do them.
How is it that things grow all by themselves?
Today we’re going to look at the principle of interdependence.
How does what I do relate to everyone else in the body.
There are three steps of maturity, dependence, independence and interdependence.
Our options:
Dependent:
Individual members desire to be fed but don’t do any feeding.
This may be because of immaturity, poor teaching or lack of empowerment.
Independent:
Individual members take responsibility but don’t work together as a team.
This can lead to a silo ministry mentality or to divisions.
The extreme view is that “I don’t need the church.”
This view forgets Jesus’s words, “I will build my church.”
Interdependent - connected
We are not alone.
Jesus is the model of interdependence
We don’t grow alone.
We don’t function alone.
1.
The plan for connections
Genesis 2:18; 2:24, 3:8-9
It’s not good for us to be alone.
Even those who are single have a family connection.
We are born into a family with relationships.
It’s good for us to be in relationship with God.
God’s plan has always been for us to be connected with others and with God.
2. The power of connections
Genesis 11:1-7
3. The reality of connections
1 Corinthians 12:12-30
We are connected with Christ.
We are connected with each other, which is every other member of the Church throughout time!
4. The result of connections
Ephesians 4:14-16
The church grows in maturity.
Ephesians 4:15
This verse is speaking of the maturity of the church, not individuals.
Do you think the Church is more mature today than it has ever been?
The church grows in love .
Ephesians 4:16
The church grows by interdependence.
Ephesians 4:16
“as each part does its work”
