What you’ll learn
By completing the survey, you’ll get clarity in several key areas:
- Which spiritual gifts you tend to express more strongly—things like teaching, serving, leadership, mercy, hospitality, evangelism, etc. Lifeway Young Adults
- How God may be calling you to grow in lesser-developed areas.
- Practical ways you can step into service—discovering roles or ministries that line up well with your gifts.
- A deeper understanding of how your personality, passions, and spiritual growth are intertwined.
- Set aside some quiet time to go through all the statements. Try not to overthink. Go with what feels most naturally “you.” Lifeway Young Adults
- Answer each item on the scale given (from not at all to definitely true). Don’t skip any. Lifeway Young Adults
- Once you finish, tally up your scores for each spiritual gift according to the instructions. This will help you see which gifts are strongest (higher scores) and which may need more attention. Lifeway Young Adults
- Reflect and pray over the results:
- Which gifts surprised you?
- Which gifts align with things you already do or enjoy?
- How might God want you to step out in service, using those gifts?
When you use your spiritual giftings, several things happen:
- You serve others in ways that feel meaningful to you.
- The church is strengthened—you contribute in ways no one else can.
- You grow in your faith, because using your gifts invites more dependence on God, more trusting, more learning.
- Your life becomes more aligned with God’s design—leading to greater joy and purpose.
