The contribution of our time, talent, and treasure also tangibly demonstrate our oneness in Christ. The pastor is not called to do the work of the ministry. Rather, the pastor is called to "prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up" (Eph. 4:12). God has given the individual members of the church spiritual gifts to be used "for the common good" (1 Cor. 12:7). Christ has called individuals from every tongue and tribe and nation to oneness as the family of God. Remember, no man is an island! God has called each member to the body for a purpose. Many logs burning together burn brightly, but when a log falls to the side, its embers quickly die. D = Disciples In the Great Commission, Christ called us not only to make converts but to make disciples (Matt. 28:19). A disciple is a learner or follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. We are called to the task of making disciples through the testimony of our love, the testimony of our lips, and the testimony of our lives.

Any gift of money made to a charitable organization.
