An understanding of spiritual gifts

Recently at South Metro Vineyard Church we had a sermon on spiritual gifts. The pastor focused on 1 Corinthians 12 and worked to provide some understanding of this passage. Some of the key points of the sermon were:

1. The spiritual gifts really are gifts.
2. The purpose of spiritual gifts is to serve one another.
3. Spiritual gifts are God's way of working.
4. God makes Himself visible through spiritual gifts.

The pastor also said that spiritual gifts are given to the available, not necessarily to the mature. What spiritual gifts has God given you? Are you making yourself available to Him and letting God be God?
