    Spiritual Gifts - Using Manifestation Gifts

    In this episode of When She Serves, Brenda and guest Janie Alford begin a three-part series on spiritual gifts by focusing on the manifestation gifts in 1 Corinthians 12:1–11, emphasizing that these are visible works of the Holy Spirit given “for the profit of all,” not badges of spirituality or tools for entertainment or profit. They discuss how the Spirit distributes gifts as He wills and why they must operate under Scripture, with discernment to guard against misuse, false prophecy, celebrity culture, and manipulative or fraudulent practices. The conversation defines and distinguishes word of wisdom, word of knowledge, faith, healings, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, tongues, and interpretation of tongues, including biblical guidelines for order in corporate worship (especially 1 Corinthians 14) and encouragement to desire and practice these gifts in the church and everyday ministry. 00:00 Fake Prophets Warning 00:52 Series Overview 01:40 Purpose of Gifts 04:04 Misuse and Discernment 05:37 Reading 1 Corinthians 12 07:30 Gifts as He Wills 08:55 Word of Wisdom 12:21 Word of Knowledge 15:48 Gift of Faith 19:53 Healing Gift Abuses 24:31 Miracles Defined 25:06 What Counts as Miracles 26:34 Salvation as Miracle 27:33 Gift of Prophecy 29:24 Discerning of Spirits 31:56 Tongues Explained 34:16 Order in Worship 36:05 Prayer Language Benefits 39:30 Singing in Tongues 39:54 Interpretation and Testing 42:47 Gifts for Today 44:59 Scripture Wrap Up 45:39 Final Encouragement

    The Five Dysfunctions of a Team - Dysfunction #1; The Absence of Trust

    The Foundational Dysfunction: Overcoming the Absence of Trust on Ministry Teams In this episode, the hosts begin a five-part series on Patrick Lencioni’s The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by focusing on the foundational issue: the absence of trust. They discuss how unmet expectations can breed suspicion, and define trust as believing the best about others, especially when mistakes, lateness, or failures occur. The conversation emphasizes that trust grows through leader-initiated vulnerability, honest communication, and creating a culture of grace rather than performance, where people feel safe admitting weakness, asking for help, receiving correction, and taking risks. They outline consequences of low trust—self-protection, filtered conversations, dangerous feedback, performative meetings, buried conflict, and breakdown of collaboration—and suggest practices like direct conversations, defending teammates, clear expectations, valuing discipleship, using strengths and personality tools, investing personal time, and apologizing quickly.
