What a Mighty God we serve! God has called us to serve Him in His Kingdom. Whom He calls He equips. He has equipped us with spiritual gifts to carry out His purposes here on earth and to build up the Body of Christ. The Bible is pretty clear about spiritual gifts being given to each Believer, yet there is a lot of confusion about the gifts and many Believers do not know if they really have a spiritual gift. I will be teaching an 8-week study on Spiritual Gifts on Wednesday nights beginning January 8 through February 26 in CHB 203. I hope that many of you will come and join me in this study journey.
