In Gifted for His Glory, Peter Corcoran invites you on a transformative journey to uncover your unique role within the Body of Christ. This book is more than a guide—it's a heartfelt exploration of purpose, identity, and spiritual gifts designed to help you find your place within God's grand design.
Drawing from Paul's teachings in Romans, Corinthians, and Ephesians, Gifted for His Glory outlines twelve essential roles in the church, each bringing something vital to the health and growth of the whole. These roles—apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, miracle workers, healers, helpers, administrators, exhorters, givers, and those who show mercy—are explored through the lives of Jesus' twelve disciples, showing how these gifts were embodied in practical, powerful ways.
Through personal stories and scriptural insights, Corcoran reveals his own journey from confident calling to seasons of doubt, including his experiences as a teacher and audio engineer. His struggles with identity and purpose resonate with anyone who has felt unseen or uncertain in their place in the church. In a world that often values prominence, Corcoran reminds us that every role—whether in the spotlight or behind the scenes—is indispensable to God's work.
Gifted for His Glory also includes a reflective survey, which guides you to discover your spiritual gifts and helps you understand how to use them effectively. This interactive tool, combined with encouraging words and a scriptural foundation, empowers you to embrace your calling with confidence, maturity, and love. Whether secure in your role or wrestling with doubts, this book will inspire you to serve faithfully, knowing that God has a place for you that only you can fill.

"That moment of doubt became more than just a question about teaching; it became a question about my identity in the body of Christ. Had I misheard God? Was my place in His plan different than I had thought?"
Peter Corcoran opens his heart in this vulnerable first chapter, sharing how a crushing moment of rejection—being told he wasn't called to teach—led to a profound journey of self-discovery. From his early passion for ministry to decades serving as the "sound guy," his story resonates with anyone who has ever questioned their purpose or felt unseen in their service...

"What if the gifts God gave me were not meant for me to execute without a struggle? And if that was the case, what if I was called to be a teacher or some other role and I missed something along the way?"— From Chapter 1: Finding Purpose
After being told he wasn't called to teach and later that he didn't have "an ear" for sound mixing after 36 years of faithful service, Peter faced a crisis of identity that many believers experience but few openly discuss.
Through his struggles, Peter discovered that confidence in our role in the body of Christ isn't about being flawless or recognized by others—it's about operating out of love and trusting that God has a place for us, even when that place shifts over time.
His journey led to a profound realization: "For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance" (Romans 11:29). God doesn't change His mind about the gifts He gives us—and neither should we give up on discovering them.
This isn't just another book about spiritual gifts—it's a lifeline for anyone who has ever felt uncertain about their place in God's kingdom. Peter wrote this book for those who have been wounded, doubted, or felt unseen in their service.
"I knew some may have lost confidence or been wounded or doubted, and I wanted to offer them a way to rediscover their purpose. So, I sat down to write this book, alive with purpose."
