Discipleship is a crucial part of a relational Christian life. Often though it's a term that gives people pause. Why? It can be confusing and somewhat daunting, especially if one feels they are new or a immature in their faith.

Patsors Scott Hawkins and Michael Stoops help us work through the idea of discipleship and shine  the light on ways to practically live it out in our daily lives.

In this episode of Things of Faith, Pastors Scott Hawkins and Michael Stoops discuss the sacraments in the Protestant church. Prior to the Reformation the Catholic church held seven things as sacraments. 

Protestant reformers set aside baptism and communion as the sacraments of the church by looking at spiritual elements through these three lenses.

1. A means of grace
2. Tied to a physical element
3. Instituted by Jesus

In this episode of Things of Faith, Pastors Scott Hawkins and Michael Stoops discuss spiritual gifts. Yes, the gift of tongues is on the agenda but spiritual gifts are way more than that. Often times, that's the stumbling block to conversations around spiritual gifts. 

Here's a foundation for understanding spiritual gifts and how they fit within you, the world, and the church.

1. You have been uniquely created by God
2. You have been uniquely placed by God
3. You have been uniquely gifted by God

No one is without unique gifts. Do not look at others and think they are gifted and you are not. We are all gifted, and there is no JV squad of spiritual gifts!
