Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the spiritual gifts? Do all Christians have them? Have the miraculous gifts ceased? The topic of spiritual gifts is often a point of contention among Christians. In Spiritual Gifts: What They Are and Why They Matter, Dr. Thomas R. Schreiner, a leading New Testament scholar, answers these questions. Schreiner shares his personal experience related to spiritual gifts, but more importantly, he unpacks what the Bible has to say about them. In doing so, he brings a spirit of humility and charity, reminding us that though spiritual gifts are important, we can have unity in Christ even where we disagree.

Book excerpt: Spiritual discernment is good for more than just making monumental decisions according to God's will. It is an essential, day-to-day activity that allows thoughtful Christians to separate the truth of God from error and to distinguish right from wrong in all kinds of settings and situations. It is also a skill-something that any person can develop and improve, especially with the guidance in this book. Written by a leading evangelical blogger, The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment is an uplifting, scripturally grounded work that explains the need for discernment, its challenges, and the steps that will cultivate it. Author Tim Challies does not do the discerning for readers; he simply shows them how to practically apply scriptural tools, principles, and wisdom so that their conclusions about everything-people, teachings, decisions, media, and organizations-will be consistent with God's Word.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our churches have hardly begun to tap the potential in the pews. Many Christians have settled for far less than God intends because many have never discovered or developed their spiritual gifts. "An understanding of Ephesians 4:11-16 has changed my entire perspective on my Christian service. I discovered that one of my highest priorities must be equipping the saints for their work of service. Pursuing this objective I have made a second discovery. Exceedingly few believers are conscious of possessing a spiritual gift, and even fewer know what their gift is or what to do about it. My third discovery is that few things can be of greater assistance to a Christian in setting his own priorities or discerning the will of God than knowing his own gift. These are the discoveries that have motivated me to prepare this book," says the author. Included are chapters on: - The Definition of a Gift - The Distribution of the Gifts - A Description of the Gifts - The Distinctions Within the Gifts.

Book excerpt: God gives every Christian at least one spiritual gift to use in their ministry. But some Christians do not use it, too fearful of what others may think, including their own church family. Yet overcoming this trepidation is paramount to doing God’s work on earth. Drawing on his experience in the ministry, Dr. J. Terry Monahan offers practical insights on spiritual gifts and how to use them in this inspiring guide. When members of the earthly body of Christ freely and joyfully use their spiritual gifts together, they in turn will reflect Jesus. With knowledge and precision, Monahan examines the reasons God gives us spiritual gifts, their role in the church, and their importance to the spiritual health of Christianity as a whole. Monahan provides an in-depth explanation of each of the spiritual gifts listed in the Bible and helps you identify your own gifts. You’ll learn how your personality reflects your dominant spiritual gift and how to distinguish when the Holy Spirit is in and out of control of your life. In addition, Monahan gives examples of how spiritual gifts have been used by various people in different circumstances. Do not let the enemy keep you from using your spiritual gifts. Instead, embrace them, further the mission of the church, and live your life with purpose and joy.
