Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. 1 Peter 4:10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: Matthew 4:19 Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. God has good works to do and he has gifted you to do them. EVERYONE IS IN FULL-TIME MINISTRY. Some Spiritual Gifts: 

All time is God’s time—From God. For God. There is NO SUCH THING as secular or sacred. God has given us unique TALENTS to do the good works he prepared in advance for us to do. Using our TALENTS for God’s glory is our full-time assignment. We are always on God’s clock! 1 Peter 4:10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: When your vocation that glorifies God is used in community to glorify God. When you glorify God in your vocation but not with your primary gift. When you are willing to meet a community need for the glory of God.
