What are the spiritual gifts? Why do we have them? Today we’re going to see that our spiritual gifts were designed as tools to be used to serve those around us. When we use them in the right way, we glorify Jesus by loving our brothers and sisters the way Jesus loves them.
Today we’re going to look at the Lord’s supper. What is it? And how does it identify us as followers of Jesus when we take part in it? To help us, we’re going look at the Passover meal that Jesus and his disciples were eating when He set in place this time of remembering.
