Point of Grace Church :: A Diversified Church with a Unified Vision

God-Given Gift Discovery

This exercise provides opportunity for you to respond to statements about your abilities, interests, experiences and talents. Do not respond on the basis of what you think you ought to say. Rather, respond on the basis of your interest and your experience. Do not let modesty hinder you from answering honestly about your abilities. There are no wrong answers.

Rate each statement 1-60 from 0 to 4 based upon your interest and experience. If a statement is not relevant to your experience, answer it by typing a zero (0) in the proper place. Mark a four (4) to indicate a strong tendency. You should not leave any questions blank. The goal of this instrument is for people to realize their potential in Christ as it related to building God’s Kingdom. There are no wrong or right answers. We are all created in the image of God, yet we all have our own unique desire. So, relax and enjoy the journey to discovering your God-given Gifts.
