The Variety of Gifts

The spiritual gifts can often be a source of controversy in the Church.  The topic is one of those that is treaded upon lightly.   How do we handle the lists?  Are all of the gifts still operative or did some cease? Do believers only get one gift or many?  Are they only for a time?  How do we know what are gifts are?  What are they for?

These questions make for very good conversation and they should drive us to the Bible for answers.  That being said, it is very important to understand that the diversity of the spiritual gifts should be celebrated.


 As you survey the people among the body of believers you attend (if you are attending church), take joy in the way God brings these people together and uniquely gifts us all.  We are a tapestry by design and it is in this diversity that the beauty of God and his Church is seen.
