It is essential for churches to consider the importance and implications of every member ministry.
There are many courses and materials available to help individuals begin to discover how God has gifted them to play their part in the local body of Christ. However, we have found that many churches use such 'gift discovery' packages without thinking about how they will provide ministry opportunities for their people. It may benefit such churches to have an experienced facilitator and/or consultant come alongside to help them consider their best approach. If you are considering running a 'gift discovery' course in your church we are available to help.
It really is an important and exciting step for a church to take in seeking to help everyone understand their gifting and the assignment that God has for them and the church as a whole and we would be delighted to be of assistance.
