Loving Others with our Gifts

Dennis McCallum

Hebrews 10:24-25

The spiritual gifts that God has given us are meant to be used for the edification of the church. God has given some the gift of tongues which is personally edifying, and only edifying for the church when there is an interpreter. God still works powerfully in our world today, but He doesn't work miracles to help people in a quest for self promotion, His power is given to edify and embolden the Body of Christ.

The Body of Christ (Part 2)

Dennis McCallum

Romans 12:7-8

The Body of Christ has been given a number of spiritual gifts to edify and serve the people in the church and around the world. God's given people gifts of service, understanding God's Truth, and through prayer. When we serve and love people, we live out God's mission for our lives.

Finding Your Role in the Body of Christ

Dennis McCallum

1 Corinthians 12:1-14:40

When people put their faith in Christ, they are united not just with him, but also with other believers. The identity and function of the Body of Christ is well-defined in scripture. We explore how this plays out in believers' lives and how to become more deeply involved in and experience true fellowship. Includes a reference: Case Study on the Church in China, 1949 to present.\r\n

The Parable of the Talents

Dennis McCallum

1 Corinthians 2:7

In Jesus' parable of the talents we are given God's perspective on stewardship and reward. All people have been given stewardship responsibility over what God has revealed and gifted them. All people have a choice in how they respond to God's gifts.
