Please select 1-3 areas in which you believe you are most gifted.
Administration: the ability to simplify or accomplish the complex, to organize projects, to organize and compel God's people toward biblical objectives in a way that is a blessing to everyone involved, and to see ideas through to completion (Romans 12:8; 1 Corinthians 12:28)
Evangelism: particularly passionate about leading others to the saving knowledge of Christ (Ephesians 4:11)
Exhortation/Encouragement: motivating others to action, application, and purpose (Romans 12:8) Giving: releasing material resources to further the work of the Church (Romans 12:8)
Mercy: having a heart that notices and empathizes with people and desires to minister to their emotional and spiritual condition, meeting them in their time of need in a discerning way without enabling the wayward or coddling the sinful (Romans 12:8)
Prophecy (Preaching): boldly and fearlessly proclaiming God’s truth (Romans 12:6; Ephesians 4:11; 1 Corinthians 12:10, 28)
Service: the desire to be of help in whatever ways are most needed, and often the tendency to perceive or look for needs; the desire to be a blessing, often in background kinds of ways (Romans 12:7; 1 Corinthians 12:28)
Shepherding: overseeing, training, feeding, coaching/leading (Ephesians 4:11)
Teaching: making clear the truth of God’s Word with simplicity and accuracy (Romans 12:7; 1 Corinthians 12:28)
