Energion.com Reader's Guide - Spiritual Gifts

The gifts of the Holy Spirit, also known as Spiritual Gifts, are those abilities that the Holy Spirit specifically gives to believers to help them carry out ministry in the church. These gifts are described in scripture primarily in 1 Corinthians 12-14, Romans 12, and Ephesians 4, though in order to get a full idea of the scope of the Holy Spirit's work in empowering believers, one would need to study a much broader ranger of scriptures.

The books and resources in this reader's guide will span a range of viewpoints, but most will reflect the idea that in some way the gifts of the Holy Spirit continue to operate in the church today. As time allows, books on the cessation of the gifts (called "cessationism") will be included.

The Energion.com Reader's Guide section is still under initial construction. Please be patient as we add resources and files.

Identifying Your Gifts and Services

Comb bound, includes survey and study program.

Energion.com Description: Though written in 1998, I find myself turning back to many of the principles offered by R.T. Kendall and Paul Cain. The 'marriage' of the Word and the Spirit has suffered a 'separation', maybe even a 'divorce' as these two men believe, that is certainly NOT in God's plan or will. It is time for us to join the vital strengths of these two parts of the Body of Christ in order to carry out our desire to serve Him and build His kingdom. Through a series of addresses given by these men, I am encouraged to seek a holy unity of the Word and the Spirit. - JN

From Amazon.com: The Old Testament is our "kindergarten" for understanding the pattern of the Holy Spirit's gifting and work. That pattern is this: God gives an assignment to a person; then the Holy Spirit is given to equip him or her for the assignment. The proof of the Spirit's presence is that the person is able to complete the assignment effectively through the supernatural enabling of the Holy Spirit. Truly understood and embraced, the Holy Spirit's gifts allow the Church to be Christ-centered, to maintain unity and oneness of heart, and to practice genuine, powerful love.

From Amazon.com: The original edition of Identifying Your Gifts and Service is a program for whole church congregations, led by a teacher, to discover their gifts and place of service. It is not a typical scientific survey designed to discover what kind of personality you have, what you feel like doing, or even what your talents are. This Small Group Edition is designed for a group of people to study together. The lectures and study materials are provided in the various chapters. With the cooperation of your pastor and church leadership, you can identify your gifts and find your place of service in your church congregation. In going through this process you will be invited to shake off some of the walls and limitations you have placed on yourself and open yourself up to the full call that God has on your life. Discovering and using your Spiritual Gifts is an adventure!

From Amazon.com: Almost 40 years ago John and Elizabeth Sherill introduced the world to the phenomenon of 'speaking in tongues' in their book, They Speak with Other Tongues. The book was an immediate success as thousands were touched by the power of this spiritual gift.

The Hidden Power of Speaking in Tongues again explores this spiritual experience powerfully prevalent in the early church. This much maligned and controversial gift was a practical part of their worship and intercession and seeks to be rediscovered in our day.

In a day of spiritual poverty, Chavda challenges the Body of Christ to experience afresh the secret dynamic of 'speaking in tongues', as he removes the veil covering this glorious gift.

Energion.com Description: [Note: I am the author of this book.] This book resulted from a series of programs I developed and presented at Springfield United Methodist Church near Panama City, Florida. The various handouts and presentations are combined into a single booklet along with a survey designed to stimulate interest and thinking about what one's gifts are and how they are to be used in the church. It is based on the belief that all spiritual gifts continue to operate in the church today and that the Holy Spirit empowers us with gifts for which we may not even have names, all of which are to be used under the guidance of the one Spirit for the building of God's kingdom. A CD set of three presentations is available to go with this series, or the entire program is offered through Pacesetters Bible School.
