Discipleship Metrics Assessment

Please complete all required fields!

This discipleship metrics assessment is to help you get a clear picture of where you are in your discipleship journey. You can take this assessment alone, but ideally you should take it for yourself, and also ask your discipler to take it answering the questions for where they think YOU are, and then compare notes. Also, make sure to input your discipler's email so they get a copy of your results.

This assessment is 50 questions, and will take about 20 minutes to complete. Everyone is on a growth journey, and none of us have “arrived” in our walks with the Lord. As you take this assessment, be as honest as possible with each answer. A 1 is not a failure, and a 5 is not perfection. Every number you put down helps you know how to grow.

First, we have a few questions about you that will determine what questions you need to answer in the assessment:
