The lists of spiritual gifts in Scripture are not exhaustive but exemplary. There are also no set categories in Scripture. This week, we look at those that might be considered "ministry gifts" and those that might be regarded as "manifestation gifts."

We are connected to The Body of Christ (the church) through our relationship with Him, not because of our gifts. However, being connected to the body gives us a responsibility to use our gifts for those we are connected to. 

----more----Spiritual gifts are given to us by God through the Holy Spirit so that we can serve Him and others. Understanding how and why these gifts are given helps us better understand the One who gives us these gifts.
