Pastor Jack teaches on the often-overlooked truth that the gifts of the Spirit require the Spirit of the gifts – love. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12 and the surrounding chapters, he emphasizes that the real test of spiritual gifts is not how perfectly they’re defined or delivered, but whether they manifest the love, grace, and character of the Holy Spirit. Through vivid personal illustrations, he challenges both those who minister spiritual gifts and those who receive them to operate in discernment, humility, and a spirit of love.
