RABBI MICHAEL WASHER TEACHINGS ON THE 5 OMER GIFTS:
These 6  teachings of Rabbi Washer will help you go deeper and find your spiritual gift:  General Overview (Omer 1) > EVANGELIST (Omer 2) > PASTOR (Omer 3) >  PROPHET (Omer 4) > TEACHER (Omer 5) > APOSTLE (Omer 6).  This means if you think Messiah has given you the gift of Pastor, you would find that teaching in the Omer 3 episode.
