In this companion workbook to What’s So Spiritual About Your Gifts, you won’t encounter any of the "spiritual gift inventories" that have been popular among Christians in recent years. Nor will you find exercises or methods to help you identify once and for all the "gifts" that you can assume to be your own for the rest of your life. Instead, what you’ll find is: careful teaching, reflective questions, and stimulating exercises to help you discover essential truths about spiritual gifts and to help you understand life in the Spirit in a fresh, biblical way—so you can better fulfill God’s dynamic calling upon your life.
What Exactly Have You Been Given?
Surprises are in the making when you explore biblically what spiritual gifts really are, how they fit with your natural strengths and talents, and how they match your calling and purpose in God.
In a seven-week format, the Blackabys focus on key concepts drawn from their book What’s So Spiritual About Your Gifts? Designed for personal Bible study or for use in small groups, each lesson includes questions and exercises to promote discussion. You’ll also find a helpful Leader’s Guide in the back.
This book will help restore the Holy Spirit to the center of your understanding and practice of spiritual gifts, and set you free to serve God as never before.
