Spiritual Gift Inventory

This Spiritual Gift Inventory consists of 80 statements. Some will be an absolute ‘yes’ to you, some will be a definite ‘no’ to you, and some will be a ‘well, maybe a bit’.

Select the response that you feel describes your thoughts and character the best/closest.
Don’t spend too much time, over thinking one item. Just go with your first instinctual response.
Make sure to answer every statement, don’t leave any blank.
Take this inventory without any outside influence… don’t ask your spouse or a good friend for help.
Take your time, there is no time deadline.

Answer on the following scale:

5 – yep, that’s me
4 – Most of the time, that would describe me
3 – About 50% of the time, that’s me
2 – 25% of the time, that’s me
1 – nope, not me at all

One last thing: once you click ‘submit’ you should see a green highlighted message thanking you. If you do NOT see this message, your answers were not submitted. Any field with an “*” indicates that it is required. Make sure you have all required fields filled out. Thanks!
