THE GIFT OF TONGUES
“For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men, but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.” -1 Corinthians 14:2
One of the more intriguing spiritual gifts that the Holy Spirit avails to us as believers is the gift of tongues. Often referred to as one’s “heavenly language,” it allows us to connect with the Lord in prayer not from the level of the intellect, but directly from the heart. Whether used in praise or intercession, individually or corporately, this beautiful gift is incredibly powerful in building us up in the Spirit. In this 3-part course, participants will explore the history and purpose of the gift of tongues, learn the different applications of its use, and gain insight into the experience and means of engaging it. Participants will also be equipped with activation activities to pursue the exercise of this gift themselves.
