How Has God Gifted You To Serve?

A lot of Christians don’t spend time thinking about how they can serve their church family. Many don’t even know what their spiritual gifts are and how they can use them. At Redeemer we believe in every member ministry. This means that our goal is to have every member and regular attender of Redeemer engaged in serving one another in love.

In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul said that the reason the Lord has gifted the church with spiritual leaders is so that they will “equip the saints for the work of ministry.” In other words the work of ministry isn’t just for pastors and spiritual leaders but for everyone!

If you don’t know what your spiritual gifts are, take a moment to fill out the S.H.A.P.E.S test. The assessment gives you feedback based on your spiritual gifts, personality, experiences etc. Take the Assessment and then return to this page to see how you can apply your unique gifts to serve your Redeemer Church family!

One of the best ways to use your gifts to serve others is to join one of our Ministry Teams. Here is a list of the ministry teams, along with the name of each team’s leader.
