About this listen
In this message, we explore how spiritual gifts, while vital for the church’s flourishing, must be exercised with deep humility and in close community. Paul begins Romans 12 not with a call to action but with a warning: “Don’t think you are better than you really are.” Before serving with our gifts, we need to examine our hearts. Gifts are not achievements, but grace-gifts from God. The church is a body, not a platform, and pride can quickly distort even the most powerful gifts — as illustrated in the tragic fall of Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill Church. Each gift, whether prophecy, service, teaching, or encouragement, is given “for doing certain things well” — not everything — reminding us that we need one another and must discern our callings in mutual dependence. Romans 12:3-8
