There is no such thing as an independent Christian. We are all inter-dependent members of Christ's body. We are bound to each other.

The spirituality of our interconnectedness in Christ directs us to work out its practicality. We live our individual distinctiveness in concord with other believers. Paul writes with piercingly simple profundity. A body has many parts. Each one is needed. A body won’t work if somehow, absurdly, the hand starts complaining it wants to be an eye. Or if the nose disdains the feet that carry the body. Within our shared life in Christ, we need each other’s unique contributions, and even each others’ different, sometimes difficult backgrounds.
