Abstract

The intention of this project was to analyze the application of the Project 'Gifts and Ministries' (GM) in the Brazilian church. Considering the dimension of Brazil and its peculiarities, the focus was on the Sixth Conference. This conference was chosen because it is composed of several different cultures, history, geography, and leadership. My intention was to evaluate the application of the GM project in the church by interviewing ten pastors and ten lay leaders in the Six Conference. The criteria for their selection included the following: (1) They are working in important churches in the Conference; (2) They are already applying the GM; (3) They are experienced in pastoral ministry and leadership; and (4) They were pastors and lay leaders in the churches of the conference before the GM was approved by the General Conference in Brazil. My intention was to identify and understand difficulties, tensions, and probably ways for working with the gifts and ministries paradigm of the church.
