The point is simple. I knew my spiritual gifts, and I knew where I was not gifted, so I made plans to enhance my strengths and compensate for my weaknesses.

Spiritual Gifts Discovery by the Church

Little more needs to be said about the importance of spiritual gifts discovery by the people in the church. From a time-management viewpoint, the more people are involved in ministry, the more time a church leader has to do the tasks God has called him to do.

To unleash the church, you must create an awareness of spiritual gifts and a climate for ministry by spiritual gifts, and provide training and equipping so many can best use their gifts for the glory of God.
