Spiritual Gifts Test

God has blessed each of his children with Spiritual Gifts. Do you know what Spiritual Gifts God has given you? If you have been wondering about this, then you have come to the right place.

This is an 'on-line' Spiritual Gifts Test. It consists of 110 Statements that you Respond to by clicking on: Always, Often, Seldom, or Never to indicate how you feel about that Statement.

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.

Are you ready to start?

You need to be able to spend enough time to Respond to ALL the Statements (at least 30 minutes), or the test will not give meaningful results. If you don't have time now, you can 'Bookmark' this page or add it to your 'Favorites'. (Sorry, but I have not yet figured out a way to save a partially completed test.)

Respond to each Statement quickly with your first feeling. Don't be too modest. When you have Responded to ALL, 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 which Spiritual Gifts you seem to have. It will also give you some more information on each of these Gifts.

You may want to Print the Spiritual Gifts Test (after you have Responded to ALL the Statements ) or print the Analysis (for future reference).
