It's a lifelong process of encouraging kids to unlock their God-given potential, challenging them to explore activities or tasks that may seem intimidating at first, and reminding them to always put their gifts to good use. God doesn't want us to bury or waste our talents or spiritual gifts. Instead, he tells us to use them for other people through service. And by serving others, we're actually serving God. Check out this months newsletter for ideas to help your children identify and use their special gifts.
