Paul said the church is like a body. A body has lots of different parts: eyes, ears, hands, and feet.
Each part does a different job, and every part is important!
In God's church, everyone has different gifts. Some are good at teaching, some at helping, some at giving, some at cheering people up. We all need each other!
