What personality are you?

Post

This is a bit of a personality quiz, only it's about the Church. My pastor was talking about this about a month ago, and it's something quite interesting. He categorized church members into four types: heart, mind, soul, and strength. The last one isn't to say that it is stronger than the others, merely that the people who fall into that category rely on their physical and mental strength to do their duties for the church. Anyway, I shall explain each category in a couple sentences...

Heart - My pastor said that these people generally prefer the worship to the sermon and the other parts of the church service. They like to sing, and praise God with all their heart.

Mind - For these people, the sermon is generally their favorite part of the church service. They want to soak up as much wisdom as possible, and pay very close attention to the pastor. I will say that I am kind of a mix between Heart and Mind, but ultimately I lean more towards mind.

Soul - For the Soul type, the prayer is the best part of the church service. Anyone who falls into the Soul category would want to pray for long hours (not that Heart, Mind, and Strength people wouldn't want to pray for long hours, but Soul probably would prefer it to other activities the Heart and Mind folks would like more) and have a very strong relationship with God.

Strength - The Strength category is full of people who want to take action and do things for God. My pastor said these are generally the people who would "go on mission trips or volunteer for a project the church is working on".

So, which type are you?

(Note: This poll does not really prove anything, and is simply a fun personality poll for the Church. I do not want these categories to ever be ranked, nor for people to say one category is superior to the others, and one category inferior. I have confidence this will not happen whether I write this note or not, I just want to make sure.)

I think It would be great if we could choose all of them, because I believe having a balance of worship, prayer, works, and wisdom in the word is very important. I love all of these, but to be honest I think the sermon is my least favorite.

I would say I'm mostly Heart...but I can be strength too. I love to sing and to worship and praise, so I would put myself in that category. But at the same time, I am a highly active person who loves missions....so I would have to label myself as that too :D
