We often compare ourselves to others.

"I wish I could teach like them."
"I wish I could sing like her."
"I wish God had given me that gift."

But what if we've been asking the wrong question?

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝘆 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀.

The gifts He gives aren't random. They're intentional. They're personal. And they're given, not to make us look important, but to make Jesus known.

This week on Hope Sabbath School, we'll study 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡 𝙂𝙞𝙛𝙩𝙨 and discover what Paul taught the new believers in Corinth: every believer has a place, every gift has a purpose, and every act of service can bring glory to God.
