This review is from: Discover Your Gifts and Learn How to Use Them 2nd Edition: Student Manual (Paperback)

It is hard to find good books on spiritual gifts, especially ones with a Reformed perspective (I am Christian Reformed -- CRC). Before purchasing any books, try all the free online tests that will give you a feel for what is available. Peruse some of the other books on the subject, then buy this one. It is the best -- concise information with biblical references and also suitable for a bible study environment.

I would recommend that you get the Leader's Guide as well, because there are a few things that are covered in the Leader's Guide that are not in the Student Manual. For example, on the issue of whether some spiritual gifts have ceased, the Student Manual presents the two different schools of thought. The Leader's Guide goes further and says that there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that any of the spiritual gifts have ceased. By the way, this is also in agreement with the CRC's current standing regarding spiritual gifts.
