totally awesome read and made me think about gifts and talents in a totally new way

Hutchins explains spiritual gifts in a way I had not considered before- in so far as our gifts are manifested through using them for others. He shifts the focus of seeking for our own spiritual benefit to seeking those gifts in order to serve others or the Savior. I appreciated the examples he used from scripture and modern prophets as well as emphasizing gifts we may fail to recognize.

I don’t usually listen to audio books, but I recently listened to the majority of this book on a long road trip. So often, it seems to me that the topic of spiritual gifts is one that has already been analyzed and reanalyzed, based on few passages found in scripture, that I feel it gets a little old. Yet the title caught my attention, but more importantly, the content was very insightful. I especially love how the author used scripture figures and extensive evidence to highlight examples of unique spiritual gifts each had, and how they were used for the benefit of others. The use of modern examples was also inspiring. Overall, a good listen and something I would love to read down the road

A religious book, focusing on gifts of the spirit, and how not only should we seek after them, and develop what we have, but we likely have gifts not explicitly spelled out in the scriptures. This was a rather short book, and could use some contemplation after some of the chapters. I loved the examples from The Book of Mormon (and admit to using two of them in recent lessons).

I have read a bit of books about the Holy Ghost and have studies spiritual gifts, this book was the best and most thorough. A bit of the information was stuff I already knew, but again its because I have read a bit of books like this. I would recommend this book for people wanting to know more.

I enjoyed the insights I gained from this book about developing spiritual gifts. I really like how the author illustrates the gifts of gratitude, gathering, being anxiously engaged in a good cause, and unwearyingness through examples of men and women in the scriptures with these specific gifts.

Beautiful ideas. I really enjoyed this.
