Today on Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram.

Have you ever wondered why you do what you do?

I mean, why is it certain ministries resonate with your heart and others? You know

they're important, but they just don't motivate you at all. Well, there's a good reason for that,

and today I'll share with you straight from the New Testament how you can begin to put the pieces

of your spiritual gift puzzle together and do it in a way that will bring you great joy

and bless other people in the process.

Have you ever felt like you were made for something more, but you're not quite sure what?

Well, today on Living on the Edge, Chip Ingram opens up the New Testament

and walks us through the seven motivational gifts God has placed in his people.

From prophecy to mercy, from teaching to leadership,

Chip makes it practical and personal. With a simple challenge, which of these gifts makes you lean

forward? Which one describes the lens you naturally look through? You are made for more than

sitting on the sidelines, and today's message is your starting point.

Well, now here's Chip Ingram with his message, how to discover your primary spiritual gift.

Okay, now we're going to look through these gifts, and here's how we're going to do it.

I'm going to give you written definition that you can see there.

Then I'm going to give you some quick characteristics.

And by the way, don't try and write these down. I'll make you nuts. If you're obsessive,

compulsive, just lean back. And then here's what I want you to do. Underneath in your notes where

it says prophecy, I want you to write the words, yes, no, maybe. And then when I get done,

just gut reaction, circle.
