Product Description

In this groundbreaking work, New Testament scholar Kenneth Berding suggests that we have misunderstood spiritual gifts themselves and how they function, and thus have embarked on a misplaced search to find individualized spiritual gifts. Berding reconsiders at a fundamental level what spiritual gifts are and argues that the Holy Spirit does not give personalized abilities or enablements, but rather ministries to be undertaken.

Editorial Reviews

Those who hold the conventional view of the spiritual giftsólisted in Ephesians 4, Romans 12, I Corinthians 12ódescribe them as special abilities, powers and enablements. Contrary to this viewówhich, the author asserts, leads believers to focus on individual gifts or powers as opposed to GodóBerding offers another perspective, defining the gifts as ministries and focusing on believers' roles, functions and assignments in the community of faith. Believers are encouraged to replace the question "What are my special abilities?" with "Where does God want me to serve?" Equally accessible to scholars and general readers, Berding's work is highly recommended for all thoughtful Christians, as his topic leaves no believer untouched. -- Christian Retailing
