Which of the following words best describes your personality?

energetic
passionate
gregarious
When asked to help out at church, you are the one who ends up
taking out the garbage
playing with the kids in crèche
chatting for hours with the people in the kitchen
leading the singing
praying for everyone
When you meet people who don't know Jesus, you
share 2 Ways to Live with them as soon as the topic comes up in conversation
tell them bluntly that they're going to hell
seek to spend more time with them to get to know them better
invite them along to church
start praying for them
During your quiet times, you tend to
read large chunks of the Bible to better absorb the larger picture
meticulously work through a passage for weeks on end, often referring to the original Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek
spend most of the time in prayer
do everything on the go because your life is so busy
eat
Your favourite part of any church service is the
question time
prayers
singing
sermon
coffee afterwards
In your spare time, you really enjoy
making things with your hands
challenging others with your vibrant wit
visiting people (you especially like dropping in unexpectedly)
organising events
giving to those in need
The best way for you to memorise Bible verses is to
repeat them over and over like a mantra
sing them Colin Buchanan-style
recite them while gesturing with wild hand movements
write them out by hand a hundred times
listen to them while you're falling asleep
You are the kind of person who
takes charge
sets the vision
helps others
analyses anything and everything
problem-solves
Your favourite Christmas carol is
“Silent Night”
“God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen”
“Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”
“Angels We Have Heard On High”
“Little Drummer Boy”
You usually find yourself hanging out with
people your own age
people who are much older than you
people who are much younger than you
people with curly hair
musicians
