This book seeks to eliminate the misunderstandings between natural talents or learned abilities, one’s natural temperament or personality, and the fruit of the Holy Spirit versus the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Woven within each teaching about the gifts, the author shares her very practical, yet supernatural, experiences in a vulnerable way with the desire that the reader will also yearn for these gifts for themselves, their families, and their church. Included are examples of Biblical characters displaying some of their different gifts. In addition, a spiritual survey is offered as one tool for the reader to identify or confirm their motivational spiritual gift(s) and begin using those gifts in ministry.
“I believe my calling is to help Christians identify and experience all the gifts of the Holy Spirit, not just a select few. Sadly, throughout my life’s journey, I have observed that most people either are not taught, are confused about, or are fearful of these wonderful gifts, and therefore are missing out on blessings. Not wanting my grandchildren to miss out on discovering and using their unique gifts, I began writing a letter as my spiritual legacy to them. I soon realized that over the years I had experienced, and therefore wanted to pass on, more than a letter could contain. By discovering and experiencing your gifts, I believe you too will encounter indescribable joy in your walk as God surprises you when you least expect it.”
