Did you know that there is a difference between a mere concern and a calling? More Bold Steps from the life of Nehemiah is coming up today. We are continuing our study of the fascinating life of Nehemiah. His heart was stirred for the destroyed city of Jerusalem and he became burdened to do something about it. He just wasn’t sure what… or how. There’s much to learn about the process he went through with God to discover those next steps. Today, Pastor Mark Jobe picks things up in Part 2 of Owning The Ruins and what it means to act on a heart that is burdened to rebuild.

Today on BOLD STEPS, we’re learning more about the principles and purpose of The Gifts of the Spirit. So many Christians have differing ideas about what, why, and how these spiritual gifts are meant to be interpreted and used … and so today, Mark helps us find the biblical answers by turning to 1 Corinthians chapter 12.  We’ll unpack how God has uniquely gifted each believer to build up the body of Christ and gain insights into the diverse gifts listed by Paul, from wisdom and faith to healing and prophecy.

Ever wondered what a spiritual gift really means?  We’re unpacking that today, on BOLD STEPS with Mark Jobe. Despite all our differences as Christians … we are united as the church of the living God, filled with His Spirit.  But sometimes that unity is disrupted … and often times, it has more to do with miscommunication than misalignment. Our lesson today is titled The Gifts of the Spirit.
