Discovering your Gift from God is one of the greatest things you can do to jump-start your Christian life. It can give your service new direction. It can give you newfound confidence and appreciation for the way God made you. It might
help you understand why you like or dislike your job. As you discover your spouse’s or children’s motivation you can begin to understand, love and nurture that gift. It is truly a thrill to watch your family serve God in ways that bring them joy.
Questions and answers regarding your personality can be subjective. You may come up with two different answers to the same question if asked on a different day. Your mood or interpretation of the question based on your most recent memories or experiences can color the way you view yourself. Keep these things in mind and take tests prayerfully asking God to confirm the results if you have doubts.
- Keep this foremost in your mind: How does this question apply to how I serve others or serve in the church? Even if these experiences are few, think of the times when you have felt useful, fulfilled and happy to do the work.
- Look for the spirit behind the questions. Use the knowledge you’ve gained from the previous chapters.
- If a question asks if you have one of several qualities mark it high if ANY of the list applies strongly to you.
- If you have no experience with a question put in a 2 so it will not falsely lower the results.
- Refer to the “litmus test questions” if you score equally high in more than one gift. These may help as tie-breakers.
