Spiritual Gift Surveys

English, Chinese (Simplified),Chinese (Traditional)

Various spiritual gift surveys

These individual and group studies are intended to help new believer better pin point what their spiritual gift(s) might be so that they can better know how to serve in the Church. We normally have people take at least 3 of them and compare their answers. If the same answers account for their “top three” then odds are that those gifts are their spiritual gifts. There are a great deal of similar tools in the USA.

Like Vision Casting, Healthy Disciple and Healthy Church, this is another Truth Project original small group series. In this study, we will explore God’s Word to find truths and patterns that God has set forth for us as we learn to do and be who God has created us to do and be as we live out His purposes in our lives. We will begin with John 15:8 telling us that we glorify God and show ourselves to be Jesus’ disciples by bearing fruit!

Book Studies

Group studies of individual books of the Bible.

Most of these studies have not been translated from Chinese yet, but a similar resource in the USA would be the New Testament Lesson Maker by Nav Press.
