Following a summary of Paul's call in the first two verses to present ourselves as a "living sacrifice" and be transformed by a renewed mind, they examine how this thinking is to be lived out within the church community.
They discuss the importance of moving beyond a consumeristic view of church to one of mutual service and dependency, where each person's unique spiritual gift contributes to the "remarkable we." Clay and Susan explore the seven spiritual gifts listed in this passage—prophecy, service, teaching, exhortation, generosity, leadership, and mercy—offering biblical definitions and practical examples for each one. They also address common questions and misconceptions about spiritual gifts, emphasizing that our gifts are not a hierarchy but rather unique tools from God's grace meant to build up the body of Christ.
