I purchased this "Questionnaire" because the price was very reasonable and because I had heard a certain Pentecostal preacher thoroughly bashing the author, C. Peter Wagner! Talk about controversy being good for business! Well, it works for me, anyway!

The point of contention was that C. Peter Wagner, as a non-Pentecostal, does not correctly define the nine "Gifts of the Spirit," (I Corinthians Chapter 12), and therefore his questionnaire must be bogus.

While I personally agree with the Pentecostal definitions of the "Gifts of the Spirit," I'm not prepared to bash Wagner, let alone classify him as a "non-Christian." I bought the Questionnaire to take the test myself, and the results agree with my own prior assessment of my own unique spiritual and ministry "gifts," plus they open my eyes to see such "gifts" in a broader context!

I think the Questionnaire is a good tool to help a person see himself more clearly in light of what the Bible has to say about spiritual and ministry "gifts." Although it would be or might be dangerous to take the results as "Gospel Truth" or "guarantee" of anything, still, we can say the same about almost anything useful. One can poke one's eye out with a toothpick, I suppose!

Therefore I highly recommend this Questionnaire! Just don't poke out your eye!

Used in my church to help members discover God's plan for their lives and how God has equipped them to carry out His plan for their lives. This is a valuable tool for these purposes. Scripture references are appropriate and very helpful. Members report that results are right on target. Gift definitions, however, could be more descriptive.

This tool is wonderful for helping individuals identify their area of gifting. It has assisted me with tapping into the strengths/gifts that I embody which make me effective in ministry. I am no longer drained by drudgery, but I have a new found energy through identifying my place in the body of Christ! Thank you for your this wonderful assessment tool!

I expected something bigger, more detailed than a pamphlet. It ask you about 50 questions and then you rate the answers. According to your score, it tells you what gifts you have. I bought the book for someone else, and he was satisfied. It will make you want to learn more about your gifts after completing it. For the price, or if you are using it to teach out of I recommend it. It's not too much that it will turn a babe in Christ away.

This questionnaire was a great resource as I used it in my Sunday School class. Students found it helpful as well.

God gifts us, and this booklet seems to just acknowledge it based on questions asked when answered from your heart. I was amazed at how the Spiritual gifts it came up with for me were nearly exact to what I felt my gifts were but didn't know how to put them into words. Find out now what your truly Spiritual gifts are and then make them a priority in your walk with Jesus.

This is still one of the Best inventories you can use to help find your Spiritual Gift(s)...it is a great tool...there are many others available online as well...

This is a good, readable book on explanation of the Spiritual Gifts. He has an inventory at the back one can use to self-assess. He lists and discusses more gifts than most authors do. His descriptions are easy to understand.

my book was like garbage , it was all balled up and had a tear in it. but because of time restraints i had to work with what i got .
