Inward Listening in Faithful Service

... listening in prayer is necessary as you learn how to see, test, taste, and value your ministry—the nature of the gift, and of your stewardship of it. You should seek to be able to pray honestly about your service, and expect to be shown what is missing, what is worth preserving, and what is to be rejected.

New Way of the Spirit

“We serve in the new way of the Spirit” —Romans 7:6 NIV What do you want from a life of faith? Maybe you’ve attended worship for years, read books, gone to bible studies and retreats. You wonder, “Will it ever come together into some clear whole?” Or “I know I have gifts I’m meant to use for good, but it’s not happening. What’s holding me back?” Maybe you ask the first question this way, “What does God desire of my life? How can I do what I am called to do?” With the author of the letter to…See More
