I grew up playing team sports and love to look at life through the lens of that experience. It’s amazing to me to see how teams and teamwork is encouraged throughout the Bible. One of the first things Jesus did in his ministry was recruit a team. In Matthew 4:19 he says, “come and follow me…I will make you fishers of Men.”
What was Jesus doing? He was recruiting others to join him on his mission and encouraging them to recruit even more, naming them the church. This was the beginning of what I call Team Church.
