How so?
I've seen much about "free" trips but little about material things. Unless you think the giftings I mentioned were tangilble things, which they are not. I was thinking more of things like the ability to see how a structure must be built to do it's job. Or how to lay out random pictures to create something that conveys a message. These are things that come from the core of one's being and while the products can be bought and sold the gift itself cannot.
These gifts are mental and to some extent spiritual, not material.
Learning new skills is not inherently material either. Though the skills might be marketable enough to sell your proficiency and use the proceeds for material things. But I don't see references to that either.
So please explain your comment, with specific examples of what you mean, for the slow (like myself) among us.
