Gifted to Serve: The Gift of Exhortation

Text: Romans 12:1-8a

This week, we learn about the fourth of the 'motivational gifts,' given by God, that motivate us to ministry – exhortation. This message points us to a key unsung hero in the Bible who illustrated this gift well. Truly, the Church would not be where it is today without this wonderful gift. Through his example, we see how we, too, should seek to encourage one another to be all that God wants us to be.
