Definition of Spiritual Gifts

Spiritual gifts are the special spiritual endowments given by the Holy Spirit to the various members of the church for the common good of the church community. All spiritual gifts are from one Spirit (God). The purpose is for enhancing the church’s growth and well-being.

Definition of Talent

Talents are natural abilities or acquired skill to use for the good of all. The way one makes use of his or her talent shows how much grace such person has received. To make the best use of one’s spiritual gift one has to identify his talents. Christians should make use of their talents to the best of their ability, using all resources at their disposal.
