Questions for Discussion and Further Reflection 1. What is the difference between talents and spiritual gifts? 2. Why do we tend to give too much credit to those who have public gifts (i.e. preaching, teaching, leadership)? 3. Why is it important to understand that ministry comes out of relationships? 4. Have you invited Christ into your life? 5. What are your spiritual gifts? Do you know what they are? Are you intentionally using them?
