How are we to understand the gifts of the Holy Spirit; from the spectacular and unusual (words of wisdom and knowledge, healings, working of miracles, etc), to the more comparatively normal and ordinary (administrations, helps, mercy ministries, etc)? What does our quest for the Spirit’s gifts (or lack of), say about us? What or who are the gifts for, and for what purpose have they been given?
In this week's episode, Pete and the Curious team examine the place and importance of the Spirit’s gifts. Together they tackle the critical question of cessationism alongside continuism. Are the gifts still relevant and operative for today, and why? They also take a run at the role of experience against scripture. Join the team in another thought-provoking episode
