Message Series: CHAZOWN- Discover God's Dream For Your Life
Message Title: Unwrapping Your Spiritual Gifts
Text: 1 Corinthians 12
Dr. Scott Hanberry

A spiritual gift is like a part of the body because:
1. Every part belongs and has a reason for being in the body.
2. Every part needs the other parts.
3. Every gift does something for the body.

How do you discover the gift God has given you through faith?
~Spend time praying to the One who gave you the gift.
~Study the Bible.
~Ask those who kow you well.
~Serve!

The Bible teaches:
-That each follower of Jesus has a spiritual gift that translates into a function within the church. (1Cor. 12:7)
-This gift is for the common good of the church, not a special attribute of personality or a talent.
-This gift is a manifestation of God's Holy Spirit in the follower's life that supernaturally empowers you to serve as a member of the body of Christ.
