Episode Details

We’re kicking off this week’s episode with part two of Sappy Cynthia—my newest segment, where I share a little more of the real-life stuff going on over here. This week, I’m talking about my daughter’s college graduation and what made me cry (which was basically most things). 

Then we jump into another great conversation with my pastor and friend, Libin Abraham. I’ve absolutely loved learning more about the Holy Spirit through these conversations, and Libin has such a gift for making it practical and approachable. This week, we’re talking all about spiritual gifts—from hospitality to healing, administration to prophecy—and how the Holy Spirit equips us for the exact places and purposes where we’ve been planted.

We also get into:

• Whether your gifts can shift over time
• Why spiritual maturity isn’t measured by your gifts
• The difference between residential gifts (the ones wired into your bones) and circumstantial gifts (the ones that show up when needed most)
• Why not using your gift might actually rob someone else of what they need
• How walking in your gifting makes the yoke easier and the burden lighter—even in ministry

We also get some practical tips on how to know if you’re hearing from the Holy Spirit. 

It’s such a rich and encouraging conversation today—so listen in and be sure to share it with someone who needs the reminder that the Holy Spirit is powerful and available for our everyday lives.
