Spiritual Gifts Test  On-Line Spiritual Gifts Test with Automatic Analysis Introduction: God has blessed each believer with one or more Spiritual Gifts. Do you know what Spiritual Gift(s) God has given you? If you have been wondering about this, then you have come to the right place. This on-line Spiritual Gifts Test (sometimes referred to as a Spiritual Gifts Inventory, Assessment, Survey, Analysis, or Questionnaire) will help you determine what Spiritual Gift(s) God has given you. The test performs an assessment of 28 Spiritual Gifts by presenting you with 140 statements that you are to respond to by clicking on: Always, Often, Seldom, or Never to indicate how well each statement applies to you. This test is designed for Christian adults (a youth version is under development). If you have been a Christian for at least a few years, you should use your personal experiences as the basis for your responses. If you consider yourself to be a new Christian, then your responses should be based on how well each statement describes the desire of your heart (even if you have not yet done what the statement talks about). It should be noted that there is some disagreement among Christians as to exactly how many Spiritual Gifts there are. This test covers a rather broad spectrum of 28 Spiritual Gifts. Please keep in mind that this test was written by people, not by God, and as such it is certainly imperfect. It should be used as a starting place to begin to discover your Spiritual Gifts, but certainly not as an absolute indicator. The test may not always indicate your true Spiritual Gifts. It is just one tool in what should be a life long search for how God has blessed you so you can bless others. Instructions: The test will take about an hour to complete. If you don't have that much time now, then you can 'Bookmark' this page or add it to your 'Favorites' and take the test later. You must complete the test in one sitting because a partially completed test can NOT be saved. Respond to each statement quickly with your first feeling. Don't be too modest. However, unless you can walk on water, you will probably respond to more statements with 'Never' than with 'Always'. When you have responded to ALL 140 statements, click on 'Submit Spiritual Gifts Test for Analysis' at the bottom. Your test will be automatically analyzed. In a few seconds, it will show you a list of the 28 Spiritual Gifts that this test covers and show you which ones appear to be the strongest in you. There is also a link to Spiritual Gifts Reference Material that provides a definition of each Spiritual Gift as well as Biblical References for each. The Spiritual Gifts Test is a free resource. However, if you find it to be a blessing to you and you are able to make a donation, it would be gratefully accepted. To donate, click HERE .
