Discover Your Spiritual Gifts
FREE Bible Study Guide
So, you want to discover your spiritual gifts? Awesome! But before we jump in, let’s be clear – this isn’t some kind of personality test where you find out if you’re a “Leader” or a “Helper” and then just go about your life unchanged. This is about figuring out how God has uniquely wired you so you can step into the purpose He has for you.
This free seven-day guide will help you not only identify your gifts, but understand how to use them to live out your purpose.
