The Difference Between Gifts and Talents
Talents have to do with techniques and methods; gifts have to do with spiritual abilities. Talents depend on natural abilities, gifts on spiritual endowment. Talents instruct, inspire, or entertain on a natural level. However, when a gift is exercised, something supernatural happens in and through the one who is ministering.

SPIRITUAL GIFTS
** Please remember -- No matter what spiritual gift we have received, we must exercise the Christian virtue of love. Otherwise, our gift or gifts will prove to be unfruitful. 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
