The Cowboy Spiritual Gift Test
This test will point you in a general direction of your spiritual gifts. To make this work most effectively, you must choose the answer of who you really are. . . Not who you'd like to be. Sometimes it's even helpful to have someone else take the test for you and answer how they see you. But the main thing is to be honest about who you are. There are no "right" answers. There are only "honest" answers.
