An interdependency should exist among believers. Each word in this verse richly demonstrates truth about our connectedness with one another. We are connected to people, not to an organization, program, or structure. This is a relational commitment. In the process of being connected with one another we maintain our individuality.
Teens are still teens.
Adults are still adults. Men are still men. Women are still women. Each of our personalities remains in tact. We do not become less of who we are in the process of becoming one with each other.
