LEARN MORE ABOUT SPIRITUAL GIFTS, PASSIONS, TALENTS AND PERSONAL STYLE
WHAT GIFTS HAS GOD GIVEN YOU?
God has given you spiritual gifts, talents, and passions to fulfill His unique purpose for your life. He plans for you to lead an exciting, adventuresome, and abundant life. Each Christian is a unique creation with a specific blend of spiritual gifts, passions, talents, and personal style to help us serve in the way God intended.
What are SPIRITUAL GIFTS? Spiritual gifts are special (divine) abilities given to every Christian by the grace of God through the Holy Spirit, to be used to serve and strengthen one another and to glorify God. While talents are given to all, spiritual gifts are given to Christians and help us serve in the body of Christ. Every believer receives at least one spiritual gift. Spiritual gifts indicate what you may do in service.
What are PASSIONS? Your passions are the combination of experiences and interest that drive and excite you to perform. They are desires that compel us to make a difference and indicate areas where you are most motivated to serve.
What are NATURAL TALENTS? Natural talents and skills are given to all people and are used in all aspects of life.
What is your PERSONAL STYLE? You may prefer a structured environment with clear goals and deadlines or a more unstructured spontaneous environment; you may enjoy working directly with people or doing tasks behind the scenes. Your personal style indicates how you best work and relates to the type of environment that makes you most comfortable.
