Spiritual gifts are often divided into three categories: speaking, serving, and sign gifts. It is the sign gifts—gifts like tongues, prophecy, and healing—that are a source of debate. Some have wrongly made Christians feel incomplete if they don’t have these sign gifts, and others have wrongly made some Christians feel weird for using the sign gifts. Join us as we look at these gifts and see how we can all use our gifts to serve others!

Anchor Passage: (Acts 5:27-29, Romans 13:1-3)
The apostle Paul instructed Christians in Rome to submit to all the governing authorities, and he wrote those words when Nero, an evil tyrant who killed his own mother and burned his own city, was the emperor. Yet there are other passages where God’s people refused to obey their earthly leaders. How do we know when to obey and when to disobey the leaders of our day and the leaders in the land? Join us as we look at the wisdom Scripture offers!

Anchor Passage: (Hebrews 9:27, 2 Corinthians 5:1-9)

One of the great mysteries of life is how we are able to live without thinking much about death, though we all will die. How can we live with hope, even though we know life will end one day? What happens to us after we die? Join us as we discover what the Bible says about death and our hope for those who trust in Jesus!
