Memorize and Reflect

Now about the gifts of the Spirit, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed. (1 Corinthians 12:1)

Prayer Direction

Thank God for giving you a spiritual gift. Ask Him to help you develop and use it for His glory. Ask for courage to never ignore your gifts but use them fully for the cause of Jesus. Pray for each member of Shoreline to engage in some kind of ministry inside or outside of the Church.

“Live It!” Challenge

Take The Class…Do The Survey Sign up for the next spiritual gifts class and do the gifts survey. Once you have done this, meet with a Shoreline leader to discover ways you can develop and use your gift for the glory of Jesus!
