Spiritual Inventory Survey

followed by a Gospel Presentation of your choice

Evangelism Gospel Presentations What Is The Gospel? 2 Complimentary Views Of The Gospel

This Spiritual Inventory Survey is not an actual Gospel presentation but it is a tool to get people thinking about what they believe and what they understand about Jesus. This survey asks questions that many or most, if not all people you might use it with, have never considered. Yes, they have beliefs and are often living by those beliefs (closely or not). But these are actually a smorgasbord of ideas, collections of beliefs they amassed over time, often based on likes and on the thinking, "It sounds good to me."  

The questions in this survey force people to start the process of analyzing their own beliefs, which can lead to seeing that their own ideas may not match reality, or are a coherent set of thoughts (logically going together). These realizations help prepare people to take time to listen and think about the truth, God's truth. 

This survey is often used with college students. They are more open to ideas and when found on campus, they often have time to sit and partake of the surveys. They also are very used to partaking of surveys on their school campus. This survey is often paired with a testimony and/or a Gospel presentation, such as the 4 Spiritual Laws or 3 Circles, to introduce people to the Gospel message.

IMAGE: 21-Day Challenge - This is an image with a challenge you can share with those who you talk to and participate in the survey. It is an invitation to that person to test out, in 21 days, if God is real or not. The challenge is to pray a prayer asking God to reveal Himself, while the person chooses to read one chapter a day from the book of John (21 chapters).

WEBSITE: The Great Exchange - The Great Exchange is an equipping ministry whose goal is to come alongside existing churches and ministries with tools to share the gospel in their spheres of influence. They do this by partnering with the church or ministry to hold Great Exchange events on their campuses and in their communities. At their events, survey people politely ask individuals if they would like to participate in a spiritual interest survey. If individuals say yes, the survey people merely listen politely to their answers. At the end of the survey, they ask if the individual would like to hear how to know God personally. Because the survey people have listened politely, more often than not people are happy to hear what they have to say. It is an open door to share the gospel and offer an opportunity to make a personal decision to follow Jesus.
