DISCUSSION GUIDE: March 17 – Ron Aulbach

“Understanding Your Spiritual Gifts”

LIFE:  What is your jean preference?  Do you have a brand or color you prefer?  Or do you prefer to wear something other than jeans? 

ENGAGE THE MESSAGE:

  1. Read Ephesians 4:11-12, Romans 12:6-8, 1 Peter 4:9-10, 1 Corinthians 12:1-2, 8-10.
  2. What is the role of a pastor according to Ephesians 4:11-12?  What does that mean for us?
  3. How is the Church different from a business? 
  4. How have you been impacted by the spiritual gifts of another person?
  5. What are natural gifts?  How are they different from spiritual gifts?
  6. God is moving within the Church today through its members using their spiritual gifts to benefit others.  How can you see yourself serving the Church/others?  How can you help others find their spiritual gifts?

INVEST IN OTHERS:  How can we be hospitable in our homes to continue the mission of God?
