GREETINGS

Christian friend,

Congratulations on your decision to complete this Spiritual Gifts discovery process! You are about to discover or re-affirm your God given spiritual gifts and enter into a specific ministry that is literally a match made in heaven!

God gave all believers spiritual gifts. That includes you. This brief [sorry my part in this letter is not brief] questionnaire will help guide you in the identification of your gifts, and more importantly, a fulfilling ministry that makes a significant contribution to the kingdom of God through your local church.

I encourage you to be thoughtful and prayerful as you answer the questions, but don't make it complicated. The questions are simple. Enjoy the process. Think of this as one of the ways God reveals a glimpse of the real you. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) [Though
we were shaped in iniquity, and in sin did our mothers conceive us (Psalm 51:5)]! God has created you for a special purpose and He has gifted you in such a way to see that purpose come alive in your life.
