Spiritual Gifts?

On Sunday, we asked what two things you'd save from your burning house (no restrictions) if all your family and pets were out safely. Many of you spoke of things that had sentimental value to you personally. We then asked what would you give your neighbor if their house burned and they were left with nothing. WOuld you give them your grandfather's old guitar? The point: God hasn't just blessed us with material possessions, but also with spiritual gifts. It's by these spiritual gifts that we should be serving others.

Explain what you feel are your personal spiritual gifts from God. How do you think you could use your personal gifts to serve others?

Sacraments

Last week, Pastor Bryant Anderson taught the class all about the sacraments. He also discussed the differences of what Presbyterians believed vs. what Roman Catholics and a few other Protestant denominations believe.

What are the two sacraments that Presbyterians celebrate, and why are they so important?
