Listen "16 | You Are Gifted — Understanding What Spiritual Gifts Actually Are"
Episode Synopsis
There’s a quiet battle happening in so many women’s hearts right now.
We scroll through social media, see someone else’s platform, and start wondering if what we bring to the table even matters. We compare, we question, and sometimes, we shrink back, waiting until we “get it all together” before we step into what God’s called us to do.
But here’s the truth: you are already gifted.
Not because you earned it, not because you’re perfect, but because the Holy Spirit chose you, on purpose, for a purpose. And the enemy would love nothing more than to keep you doubting that.
In this episode, I’m helping you get a clear, biblical understanding of what spiritual gifts actually are, and what they’re not. We’re walking through 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, and Ephesians 4 to uncover four of the most common lies women believe about their gifts and the truth that sets us free.
This conversation is for every woman who’s ever felt unseen, overlooked, or unsure of where she fits in the Body of Christ.
💡 Key Takeaways
You don’t earn your gift — it’s given by grace.
Every believer has a spiritual gift. Yes, that includes you.
Your gift isn’t about perfection; it’s about obedience.
Spiritual gifts are meant for service, not self-promotion.
God arranged you in the Body of Christ on purpose.
📖 Scripture Anchors
1 Corinthians 12:4–7
Romans 12:6
Ephesians 4:11–12
These passages will be our anchors over the next few episodes as we take a deeper dive into how spiritual gifts work together in the Body of Christ.
📝 Reflection & Invitation
Take a few minutes this week to sit with the Lord and journal:
What are my spiritual gifts?
What lies have I believed about them?
What truth does God’s Word say about me?
And as you do, remember this: you are gifted, not for your glory, but for God’s.
