EVERYBODY HAS A PLACE... DISCOVER YOURS TODAY
God created each of us uniquely with gifts and talents to bring Him glory and benefit the body of Christ. We want to help you find your place at First Dallas! Take our spiritual gift test to help you identify a potential area to volunteer, browse through opportunities, and watch to Dr. Jeffress’ sermon on Discovering Your Spiritual Gift. We are excited to partner with you in identifying your gift and finding your place to volunteer at First Baptist Dallas.
“As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” 1 Peter 4:10
This sermon explains one of the most important truths any Christian can understand: God has given every believer a unique spiritual gift. The key to true fulfillment in life is discovering and using the unique spiritual gift God has given you.
In this sermon, you will learn the definition, characteristics, and dangers of the each spiritual gift.
In this message, we will look further at each of the seven spiritual gifts and close with some important reminders about using your spiritual gift.
