Description

This passage suggests, not just that we have spiritual gifts, but that we are gifts... rather than just saying "I have the gift of..." it's really "you and I are gifts."

In this message from a Summer 2012 chapel, Paul Stevens reflects on a passage that re-shaped his life and vocation: Ephesians 4. Paul explores what it means that we are gifts to each other, how Jesus intends leaders to empower every believer in the church, and what it means that we are all sent out into the world, Monday after Monday.
