Spiritual Gifts for the Common Good
Have you ever noticed how uniquely adapted each animal seems to be to its particular environment and way of life? On land, a duck waddles along ungainly on its webbed feet, while in the water, it glides along smooth as glass. Or a rabbit can run with ease, using great bursts of speed, but you’d be hard-pressed to find one swimming laps.
What's true of animals is also true of Christians. God has not made us all the same. He never intended to. He deliberately planned that there would be differences, variations, and even supernatural capabilities (referred to in the Bible as spiritual gifts) distributed throughout the Body of Christ. So join us for this week’s message as we consider how these unique and divinely-given gifts, when properly discovered and developed, honor God while also bringing everlasting good to the Church and to the entire world.

This Week's Message: "Attaining Fullness in Christ" by Pastor Dan Stockum
Many of us have heard the phrase, “speak the truth in love,” but what does it mean? And why does Paul in his letter to the Ephesians emphasize it as what we must do to grow spiritually? This week, we’ll study the critical role of speaking into one another’s lives, and the wondrous blessing that it is.
