Spiritual Gifts Inventory

Discovering Your Spiritual Gifts

 
Discovering your God-given gifts. Here is a simple test to help you identify some of your special gifts. It focuses on seven ministry gifts that are mentioned in Romans 12: 6-8.

For each question, choose the response which best describe you. Then, tabulate your scores. (Ignore letters in front of responses until the exercise instructs you otherwise.)

"We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully." Romans 12: 6-8

Facts about Spiritual Gifts:


Every member has at least one spiritual gift, usually two or three.


Every member should be using his or her gifts to serve others through the church.


No member has all the gifts, so we need each other.


No gift is given to all members. God decides who receives which gift.
