DISCIPLESHIP SELF-EVALUATION QUESTIONNAIRE

(Print the page using the print function in your web browser or using Ctrl P)

 

This is a self-test to see where you are now as a follower of Jesus. There are no right or wrong answers. Your answer to each question is what you feel about your discipleship. It is a test to help you see where you are now, not where you think you should be, or where you would like to be in the future. So be as honest with yourself as you can without over-rating or under-rating yourself.

 

Read each statement and put a tick in the column that you judge to be most true of you.
