I found this quote from Dr. Ralph Winter that reinforces the famous “piano tuning” quote by Tozer. It is well worth reflecting on…and then acting on. “I see the world church as the gathering together of a great symphony orchestra where we don’t make every new person coming in play a violin in order to fit in with the rest. We invite the people to come in to play the same score – the Word of God– but to play their own instruments, and in this way there will issue forth a heavenly sound that will grow in the splendor and glory of God as each new instrument is added.” – Ralph Winter The unity and love that is to be present in Christ’s church is not a result of focusing on one another. It is not a result of checking our individual personalities or giftedness at the door. Biblical love and biblical unity are the result of two people focused on the same goal then going after that goal, together, for the glory of God!
