STEP 1

FINDING YOUR GIFTS

There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. - 1 Cor 12:4-6

God gave each of us our own, unique set of gifts. Use the inventory below to begin identifying specific gifts that He may be calling you to use for the building of the Kingdom of God!
