The Book of Romans sets down the foundational truths of Christianity and the knowledge about spiritual gifts which were important to the church. In this section of the lecture "Real Churches Use Spiritual Gifts" Richard Thompson invites us to explore Romans 12 and: 

- explains the uniqueness of this list of gifts;

- talks about Paul as the example of a prophet and Stephanas as the example of a servant;

- retells a story about the keeper of a spring.
