Use The Gifts God Gives You

Wes Perry had relocated his family to Costa Rica with the expectation that they would serve there as missionaries. Though he had been successful in business previously, Wes “wanted to make a difference in the world and thought the only way to do that was to become a missionary.” However, it was during his time in the mission field that Wes realized he could use his God-given gifts and skills in business to make a kingdom impact from his office. He moved back home and found ways to use his business prowess to live on mission for God by “resourcing, supporting, and encouraging missionaries across the world” (“Mission Trip Turned into a Life on Mission,” Milagros, accessed January 28, 2023, https://milagrosfoundation.org/mission-trip-turned-into-a-life-on-mission/). Like Wes, the early church quickly realized that they were called to spread the gospel message using whatever gifts God gave them, wherever God led them.
