Gifted is a response to St. Paul's admonition in the Book of Corinthians to set our hearts on spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. These factors are examined in the context of the spiritual gifts, friendship with Jesus, and prophetic summaries.

Various life styles are examined. How are we living? How should we live? And how could we live starting now in God's Kingdom? Surprisingly, our life does not end with our earthly demise. Our eternal life can be up or down, in a vacuum, or surrounded by God's love. It is totally dependent on our acceptance or rejection of God's plan.

To assist us in the progression from a secular life to a spiritual life, the numerous God-given gifts are examined. Also God's words spoken in modern prophecies are quoted. If you have ever wondered about God's thoughts besides those in scripture, his words will enlighten you. The overall evidence of God's love for us is shown throughout Gifted.
