     | 15,384 views

    Finding your place in the body of Christ is made difficult by the very nature of the spiritual gifts. People with upfront or flamboyant kinds of ministries can make the rest of us feel insignificant, like we are not contributing or maybe just aren't a par

    As humans we like two things: to impress and be impressive. That was one of the main problems the Corinthians faced in many areas including spiritual gifts. The more flamboyant the gift, the more impressive the show of the Spirit, the better. So in chapters 12 through 14 Paul corrects this ...read more

    God’s promises are received by faith, not by our efforts; grace, not performance, secures our acceptance and hope in Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with lists—mental ledgers of what we did right and where we fell short. We carry them like heavy backpacks.
