Many churches lack a structured Christian Education program outside of the regular Sunday school and midweek Bible Study, which leaves a large void in the lives of believers and forces them to adopt erroneous views and visions for the personal ministries and gifts. “For the Perfecting of the Saints” seeks to fill that void and empower individual Biblical-based education, including revelatory information (revelation) to make their lives more relevant (application). This practical guide assists in addressing the ministry gift and the impact that it has on one’s personal, professional, and ministerial life.

Author Jennifer Gilbert explains the five ministry gifts in great depth and detail, Pastor, teacher, evangelist, and Apostle. She examines them from the Biblical standpoint in addition to applying her thirty years of experience in the ministry and her fifteen years in education-spiritually and professionally combined. She considers the characteristics, both personally and spiritually, that are attributes of each gift. Further, she explains many of the ways that one can develop their God-given gift and calling, the danger of detouring from their calling, and most importantly, the manners by which each one operates.

With the publication of “For the Perfecting of the Saints,” there is no longer an excuse for a lack of knowledge because there are in-depth explanations and examinations of Biblical examples that will enable anyone to use their God-given gifts effectively.
