On today’s episode, we will be chatting with Jenn Jett Barrett. Jenn is a dreamer, a doer and a champion of risk takers.

She lives in Northwest Arkansas and is married to her best friend. I know you will appreciate Jenn’s story as she shares the struggles and joys that she has experienced over the years.

We are diving into the topic of spiritual gifts! This topic is often centered on finding your gifts and then finding a way to use them. We think that’s a great conversation, but really, the conversation on spiritual gifts is so much bigger than that! In this episode, Shelby and Krystal take a step back and look at how Scripture informs our understanding of why we have gifts in the first place and how it ultimately points, not to ourselves, but to the glory of God. Whether you are actively using your spiritual gifts or have a desire to find your place within the church, we hope this conversation will give you a greater understanding of why we have spiritual gifts and how we are to use them. 1:04 - Krystal and Shelby share their favorite things this week 8:09 - What are spiritual gifts? 10:56 - What are the spiritual gifts listed in the Bible and are the gifts listed available for believers today? 18:15 - What is the purpose of spiritual gifts? 20:10 - How can we figure out and use our spiritual gifts? 27:39 - How does the gospel impact the conversation on spiritual gifts?
