Easing In

• Have you taken the GIFTS PASSIONS STORY (GPS) Assessment yet? What things were confirmed? What things surprised you?

Read 1 Peter 4:1-11

• What is to be expected when you live into the gifting that God has given you?

• With what attitude and heart do we exercise our gifts?

• What happens when we use the gifts that God has given us?

Read Romans 12:1-13

• What are the parallels with 1 Peter 4:1-11?

• Consider your GPS. What gifts are on Paul’s list? What gifts/passions are not on the list?

• For you, what may hinder using your gift in love and grace?

Application

• Consider a time when you were asked to serve in a capacity outside of your gifting or passion. How did you leave that situation? How did it compare to when you worked inside your gifting and passions?

• What gift have you left unopened or underdeveloped? How could you change that?

• Looking forward, what are some ministries where your gifts may be utilized? What might be keeping you from test-driving serving in those spaces?
