contribute God is doing something here.

“ I will build my church , and the gates of hell will not overcome it.” <Matthew 16:18>

contribute Here is something God IS doing.

“ Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ….The body is not made up of one part but of many…. God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as He wanted them to be. ” <1 Corinthians 12:12, 14, 18>

“ Every human wish dream that is injected into the Christian community is a hindrance to genuine community and must be banished if genuine community is to survive…

“… He who loves his dream of community more than the Christian community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial.” <Dietrich Bonhoeffer in Life Together >

“ If they were all one part, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts , but one body.” <1 Corinthians 12:19-20> We are not all the same!

“ The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I don’t need you!’ And the head cannot say to the feet, ‘I don’t need you!’ … So that there should be no division in the body.” <1 Corinthians 12:21,25> We need each other!
