This document provides guidance on discovering and using spiritual gifts to serve the church. It discusses that God has uniquely gifted each person and calls them to serve others as stewards of God's grace. Several spiritual gifts are mentioned that people can use such as deacons, prayer intercessors, Bible study leaders, and evangelism teams. Requirements for serving in these areas include being a committed Christian, attending trainings, and completing a discipleship program. The overall message is that each person should discover how God has shaped them and use their gifts to strengthen the body of Christ.

2. SHAPED FOR SERVICE

3. 1 PETER 4:10-11
10 Each of you should use whatever gift you
have received to serve others, as faithful
stewards of God’s grace in its various
forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do
so as one who speaks the very words of
God. If anyone serves, they should do so
with the strength God provides, so that in
all things God may be praised through
Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the
power for ever and ever. Amen.

4. GOD IS SEEKING
FULL SERVICE
FOR THE
CHURCH.

5. 1 PETER 4:10 (NAS)
10 As each one has received a special
gift, employ it in serving one another
as good stewards of the manifold
grace of God.

6. SERVICE is
SHAPED by a
GRACE
perspective.

7. GRACE
In mercy, God does not give us what
we deserve; in grace, He gives us
what we don’t deserve.

8. SERVICE is a
STEWARDSHIP
of GRACE.

9. GRACE vs. MERCY (Max Lucado)
“Not just mercies, mind you, but
grace. Grace goes beyond mercy.
Mercy gave Ruth some food. Grace
gave her a husband and a home.
Mercy gave the prodigal son a
second chance. Grace threw him a
party.

10. GRACE vs. MERCY (Max Lucado)
Mercy prompted the Samaritan to
bandage the wounds of the victim.
Grace prompted him to leave his
credit card as payment for the
victim’s care. Mercy gave the thief on
the cross. Grace escorted him into
paradise. Mercy pardons us. Grace
woos and weds us!”

11. 1 PETER 4:10 (NAS)
10 As each one has received a special
gift, employ it in serving one another
as good stewards of the manifold
grace of God.

12. 2 CORINTHIANS 9:8 (ESV)
8 And God is able to make all grace
abound to you, so that having all-
sufficiency in all things at all times,
you may abound in every good
work.

13. GOD HAS
UNIQUELY
GIFTED HIS
PEOPLE TO SERVE
ONE ANOTHER.

14. 1 PETER 4:10 (NAS)
10 As each one has received a special
gift, employ it in serving one another

15. HOW DO I
DISCOVER MY
GIFTEDNESS?

16. WHAT HAS
GOD GIVEN ME
A PASSION
FOR?

17. JEREMIAH 20:9
9 But if I say, “I will not mention his
word or speak anymore in his
name,” his word is in my heart like a
fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am
weary of holding it in; indeed, I
cannot.

18. WHAT IS THE
SHAPE OF MY
PERSONALITY?

19. PSALMS 139:1-6
You have searched me, Lord, and
you know me. 2 You know when I sit
and when I rise; you perceive my
thoughts from afar.3 You discern my
going out and my lying down; you
are familiar with all my ways.

20. PSALMS 139:1-6
4 Before a word is on my tongue you,
Lord, know it completely. 5 You hem
me in behind and before,
and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful
for me,
too lofty for me to attain.

21. PSALMS 139:13-15
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and
wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths
of the earth.

22. HOW HAVE I
BEEN SHAPED
BY MY PAST
EXPERIENCES?

23. LUKE 7:36-39
36 When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to
have dinner with him, he went to the
Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 A
woman in that town who lived a sinful life
learned that Jesus was eating at the
Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an
alabaster jar of perfume.

24. LUKE 7:36-39
38 As she stood behind him at his feet
weeping, she began to wet his feet with
her tears. Then she wiped them with her
hair, kissed them and poured perfume on
them. 39 When the Pharisee who had invited
him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man
were a prophet, he would know who is
touching him and what kind of woman she
is—that she is a sinner.”

26. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
12 Just as a body, though one, has many
parts, but all its many parts form one body,
so it is with Christ. 13 For we were all
baptized by one Spirit so as to form one
body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or
free—and we were all given the one Spirit
to drink. 14 Even so the body is not made up
of one part but of many.

27. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
15 Now if the foot should say, “Because I am
not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it
would not for that reason stop being part
of the body. 16 And if the ear should say,
“Because I am not an eye, I do not belong
to the body,” it would not for that reason
stop being part of the body.

28. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
17 If the whole body were an eye, where
would the sense of hearing be? If the whole
body were an ear, where would the sense
of smell be? 18 But in fact God has placed
the parts in the body, every one of them,
just as he wanted them to be. 19 If they
were all one part, where would the body
be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, but one
body.

29. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t
need you!” And the head cannot say to the
feet, “I don’t need you!” 22 On the contrary,
those parts of the body that seem to be
weaker are indispensable, 23 and the parts
that we think are less honorable we treat
with special honor. And the parts that are
unpresentable are treated with special
modesty,

30. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
24 while our presentable parts need no
special treatment. But God has put the body
together, giving greater honor to the parts
that lacked it, 25 so that there should be no
division in the body, but that its parts
should have equal concern for each other. 26
If one part suffers, every part suffers with
it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices
with it.

31. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each
one of you is a part of it. 28 And God has
placed in the church first of all apostles,
second prophets, third teachers, then
miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of
guidance, and of different kinds of tongues.

32. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all
teachers? Do all work miracles? 30 Do all
have gifts of healing? Do all speak in
tongues[d]? Do all interpret? 31 Now eagerly
desire the greater gifts.
