Recognizing God-Given Gifts and Utilizing Them for His Glory

Written by Katelyn Bailey  How do we know what God has gifted us to do? Once we know what our gifts are, how do we use them to glorify Him? In this blog we will look at how God has answered these questions in my life, to give you an example and a starting point to look at in your own life. My name is Katelyn and I am an intern with Children’s Bible Ministries. When I was twelve, I became a mother’s helper.

Written by Gracie Kinsey   Relationships are one of the most valuable resources that God gave us when He created the Earth and everything in it.

His Purposes are Great and His Ways Unexpected

By Jaelynn Woullard, Team #11 During high school, I was in the medical academy. I thought that it was the field that I wanted to go into as a career and that I was going to be a nurse. During my senior year I took 2 classes that had to do with the medical field: EKG Technician and Home Health Aid/Phlebotomy.

But I was taking a prescription for migraines and they said that I would have to be off the medication for a year before I could ...
