God designed life to be lived in meaningful relationships and connections. In Week 3 of our FREEDOM series, we explore the importance of being connected to “One Another” and how God uses relationships to build the Church, strengthen our lives, and lead us to true freedom.

From Matthew 16:18 to Ephesians 4:16, Scripture shows us that each believer is a vital part of the Body of Christ. Just like LEGOs, you can’t build anything great unless you connect. When we live in community, we not only build the Church but also our best life—discovering effectiveness, healing, forgiveness, and freedom.

In This Message You’ll Learn:

  • Why connection is essential to building the Church (Matthew 16:18)

  • How each part of the Body of Christ plays a unique role (1 Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4:16)

  • Why confession and prayer in community lead to healing (James 5:13–16, 1 John 1:9)

  • The importance of servant leadership and spiritual growth (Exodus 18, 1 Peter 5:2–3)

  • The stages of faith: unbeliever → believer → follower → disciple → servant leader

Key Scriptures:
📖 Matthew 16:18
📖 1 Corinthians 12
📖 Ephesians 4:16
📖 James 5:13–16
📖 1 John 1:9
📖 Exodus 18
📖 1 Peter 5:2–3

God never intended for us to do life alone. Connection is where freedom, healing, and growth are found. Let’s step into God’s design and live fully connected to Him and one another.
