A spiritual gifts assessment was given to me at church last week. I wrote briefly about spiritual gifts in an older post but I want to dive a little deeper today, giving you this interactive chart so that you can clearly decipher between yours.

After carefully examining my spiritual gifts assessment results, I realized that these rare gifts are not learned behaviors. These gifts are pre-existing things God placed inside of me to use for His glory. For instance, the spiritual gift of “ADMINISTRATION” was not a high scoring spiritual gift for me. I got a 9 out of 15. I’ve learned the skill of administration over time, but if I serve in an administrative role, I would be taking the place of someone else better suited for the job at hand—someone who God gave a 15 out of 15.

I made the below spiritual gifts assessment for you to print out. Take the assessment thoughtfully reading each word and being authentic.

 

 

Step 1

At the end of each sentence, write a number (1= almost never, 2= seldom, 3= sometimes, 4= frequently, 5= almost always):

Step 2

Group your first three sentence scores together to get a totaled number (it will be somewhere between 3 and 15):

 

Here’s an example:

  • I like organizing services and events. Write a number
  • I am passionate about managing details. Write a number
  • Creating a task list is easy and enjoyable to me. Write a number

My total = Sum of the above. 

 

Do this for every group of three sentences (in order down the list) until you’re done. You should have 22 totaled numbers.

 

 

Step 3

figure out your spiritual gifts (look at the ones you scored a 14 or 15):

 

The first three sentences = the gift of ADMINISTRATION

The next three sentences = the gift of APOSTLESHIP

The next three sentences = the gift of CRAFTSMANSHIP

The next three sentences = the gift of EVANGELISM

The next three sentences = the gift of EXHORTATION

The next three sentences = the gift of FAITH

The next three sentences = the gift of GIVING

The next three sentences = the gift of HEALING

The next three sentences = the gift of HELPS

The next three sentences = the gift of HOSPITALITY

The next three sentences = the gift of INTERCESSION

The next three sentences = the gift of KNOWLEDGE

The next three sentences = the gift of LEADERSHIP

The next three sentences = the gift of MERCY

The next three sentences = the gift of MIRACLES

The next three sentences = the gift of MISSIONARY

The next three sentences = the gift of MUSIC / WORSHIP

The next three sentences = the gift of PASTOR / SHEPHERD

The next three sentences = the gift of PROPHECY

The next three sentences = the gift of SERVICE

The next three sentences = the gift of TEACHING

The last three sentences = the gift of WISDOM
