Do you know your spiritual gifts?

As part of our look at what it means to "live in the Spirit", we are looking at discovering our spiritual gifts.  Pastor Steve even assigned homework after his Apr 6, 2008 sermon!  Click here for the homework sheet, and visit "Pastor Steve's Sermons" to listen to the sermon.

There are a number of websites devoted to helping you discover your spiritual gifts, and some links to these are below.  PLEASE REMEMBER THESE ARE JUST ONE TOOL TO HELP YOU DISCOVER YOUR GIFT!  These can point you in the right direction, but then you need to talk to the people in your church community who know you, and you need to experiment with serving God in the areas you think you might have a spiritual gift.  Once discovered, you need to learn how to best use your gift.

Discovering and using your spiritual gift is a great adventure!

Here are some websites:

http://www.kodachrome.org/spiritgift/   despite what it says, this should not take you an hour.  You can see Pastor Steve's results by clicking here .

http://www.churchgrowth.org/analysis/intro.php   This one is limited to what they call the "team" gifts, but includes a very helpful description.  For fun you can read Pastor Steve's results by clicking here .

http://www.pcusa.org/transformation/downloads/spiritualgifts.pdf   This is one you print, fill out, and add up yourself.  This will look familiar if you did this type of thing in the 1980s...
