You are part of a vast global Christian family. With 2.38 billion believers worldwide. This means that nearly one-third of the world's population shares your commitment to Christ. In fact, Christians form the majority in about 157 countries and territories, encompassing diverse traditions and languages. You're never far from a fellow member of God's vast Christian family.
As 1 Corinthians 12:12 reminds us, "Christ is like a single body, which has many parts; it is still one body, even though it has many parts" (NCV). This unity in diversity reflects the strength and beauty of our faith community. Embrace this connection, knowing that your brothers and sisters in Christ around the globe support and pray for you.
Let this awareness inspire you to engage with and pray for the global church. Your faith journey is intertwined with millions of others, creating a tapestry of hope, love, and shared purpose.
