#56: Let me ask you something—have you ever wondered whether the things you’re good at are actually spiritual gifts? Maybe you've been told you have a natural talent for something, or you've worked hard to develop a skill, but does that mean it's a spiritual gift?
This is where so many people get stuck—confusing talents, skills, and spiritual gifts. And trust me, I’ve been there! I spent years trying to figure out what I was supposed to be doing, taking personality tests, career assessments, and seeking clarity on how God designed me. But it wasn’t until I discovered the difference between these three things that I truly began to understand my unique role in the body of Christ.
In this episode, we’re going to break it all down:
✔️ What talents, skills, and spiritual gifts really are
✔️ How to tell the difference between them
✔️ Why understanding this distinction can set you free in your calling
By the end of our time together, my hope is that you’ll have a fresh perspective on how God has wired you and a deeper excitement for uncovering the gift He’s placed inside you.
Let’s go to the show!

Heavenly Position Guidance Challenge:
For this week’s Heavenly Position System Challenge, take some time to reflect and journal about the following questions:
What are some talents I was born with? Things that have always come naturally to me?
What are some skills I have learned and developed over time?
When have I experienced a moment where I felt God moving through me in a way that impacted others? What was I doing? How did it feel?
Do I see any connections between my talents, skills, and how God might be using me spiritually?
Write these thoughts down, pray over them, and ask God to reveal more about how He has uniquely gifted you.
