This week I am speaking from the topic of Knowing Your Spiritual Gifts. This question came from one of the listeners.  When we are in Christ Jesus, we receive at least one gift that is to be used in building up the kingdom of God. When we become Christians the innate talents we have are repurposed in alignment with our gift(s). As we walk with the Lord, the Holy Spirit guides us as to how to use the gift(s). Most importantly after learning one's gift(s) is to use them to serve others and fulfill God's purposes. To edify and build up the kingdom of God. When we use our gifts effectively we: (1) give the church power for the preached word to come forth to the world. (2) equip the church for building up the body of Christ.

This episode speaks on Self-Care. This is the practice of taking action to preserve or improve one's own health. We must each find balance in our lives and not become so busy about doing for others that we neglect our own well-being.  We can do for others. We can love others. However, we must, also, love and serve self in the process. This is will help us to find the needed balance for our holistic wellness which brings alignment in our mind, body, spirit.

The principles shared this week are intended to help married couples to become strengthened in their relationships. The principles shared are (1) Trusting God as our Center at all times, (2) Living out the Golden Rule, (3) Building Trust in the Marriage, and (4) Effective Communication.
