The Indispensable Need for Others

It’s a subtle but dangerous thought. We might not say it out loud, but we can feel it: "Things would just run better if everyone was as committed or gifted as I am." It's the sin of self-sufficiency. It’s the pride that tempts us to look at others in the church and think, "I don't really need them." Paul confronts this deadly attitude head-on, showing us that to think this way is to misunderstand God and His design for the church entirely.
