Recently I noticed that someone found the site using\u00a0the title of this post as keywords in a search. It got me to thinking. Humanly speaking, I could respond with bias — a book by Ministry Tools Resource Center, Everybody Has a Part: Getting a Grip on Spiritual Gifts<\/a>. But, there are many other good books out there on spiritual gifting. Each book undoubtedly comes at it from a slightly different slant so what a person is hoping to glean might determine the response as to which book is best.<\/p>\n

\"SpiritualYet, without meaning to sound trite, I truly would have to point people on this kind of search to the Bible as the best book on spiritual gifts. And, I would have to say that the value of any other book on the subject is only in accordance with how it lines up with Scripture.<\/p>\n

While other books might try to answer questions about gifting not specifically provided in Scripture, we must remember that their conclusions are mere extrapolation or interpretation that may or may not be true.
