Created as a Team

Teaching Notes

They’re the best players in the world but this is a team sport. We don’t play them 1 on 1, we play them 5 on 5. This isn’t tennis.

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Ephesians 2:10


There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord,one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all,who is over all and through all and in all.

Ephesians 4:4-6

Ephesians 4:11

3. Great teams rally together and bring out each other’s best. 

...so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

Ephesians 3:14


4. Jesus wants a stout defense and relentless offense.


Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Ephesians 4:14 - 16


I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Matthew 16:18


5. Jesus is the coach.

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

Ephesians 4:14 - 16
