One thing we know from scripture is that every Christian is given gifts from the Lord by the power of the Holy Spirit! Some of these gifts seem more ordinary and natural, whereas other gifts are definitely miraculous and supernatural. Some of these gifts are given to believers as needed, some are given to people as a part of who they are as a believer, and some gifts are in the form of offices that people operate within the church context (see pt. 2)

The problem is that most Christians don’t know they have gifts, and even if they do they haven’t had the opportunity to explore what gifts the Lord has given them. Follow the prompts below to discover what gifts the Lord has given or wants to make known within you!
