Sunday's Lesson on Spiritual Gifts by John Harrington is available on video and summarized below:

This week’s lesson on spiritual gifts emphasized that they are not for personal gain but to build up the body of Christ and glorify God. Believers are uniquely designed and equipped by God for His purposes, and recognizing and yielding to His power is key to operating in these gifts. Through reflection and sharing, participants explored how spiritual gifts flow in real-time, meeting needs and transforming lives. The takeaway was clear: spiritual gifts grow through trust, obedience, and practical application, with the ultimate goal of serving others and bringing glory to God. The prayer for the week: "Lord, help me see how the spiritual gifts You’ve given me work together for my good and Your glory." Class Lesson Handouts:

Sunday's Lesson on Spiritual Gifts by John Harrington is available on video and summarized below:

Get ready to discover your supernatural power! This lesson reveals spiritual gifts as God's unique enablement(s) not just talents, given to every believer. Explore your gifts, embrace new ones, and step into a new dimension of faith. Are you curious how God might want to change your walk? Take a spiritual gift assessment, but hold results loosely, because you are a unique individual. In the next lesson, we'll explore which gifts you secretly desire, which ones scare you, and if you think some gifts have ceased. Bring your questions! Realize you are a container designed to manifest the gifts God wants to give you. Don't go through the motions; ignite your passion and get ready for a surprising journey. Class Lesson Handouts:

As we step into this new year, let this *image remind us of the steadfastness of El Tsuri – The Rock (name of God class focus for January 2025). Just as the mountains stand firm and unshakable, so is our God—our refuge, strength, and foundation. The snow-covered peaks reflect the purity of His love, and the open fields symbolize the new opportunities He has prepared for us to grow and serve together.

Let us embrace 2025 with hope and faith, trusting in El Tsuri to guide us through every moment.

Here’s to a year of standing firm on The Rock and growing together in Christ!
