Discovering your spiritual gifts

If you're an avid ec reader, you know that for the last few months, we've been doing a series of articles on spiritual disciplines. This month, the article focuses of the spiritual discipline of service and as part of that, we invited you to discover your spiritual gifts and get involved in ministries or activities that use those gifts.

But how do you find out what your spiritual gifts are? A good first step would be to read what the Bible has to say about spiritual gifts. Check out 1 Corinthians 12:17-30 and Romans 12:6-8. Pray for understanding as you read these passages and for the Holy Spirit to make your gifts clear to you.

Another important part of finding out what your spiritual gifts are is taking a spiritual gifts inventory. And you're in luck, because we've got a spiritual gifts inventory all ready for you. Do know that this will take some time and it's probably something you'll want to do in a quiet place where you have space and time to think.

Let us know what you find out!

(P.S. The spiritual gifts inventory is a PDF, so you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to access it. Feel free to print it out and work on it at your convenience.)
