A Reflection, Not a Test

A three-tier journey of honest self-examination

Search me, O God, and know my heart:
try me, and know my thoughts:
and see if there be any wicked way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
— Psalm 139:23-24, KJV

This is not a test. It is a reflection — a chance to look honestly at your walk with the Lord, in His presence, right now. It is also a research tool: your answers, joined with thousands of others, help build the first honest picture of the South African church's health. Both matter. We cannot help the Body of Christ if we cannot see where the Body of Christ actually is.

It takes place in three tiers. Tier 1 is gentle — fifteen questions about the everyday shape of your faith. Tier 2 goes deeper. Tier 3 asks about the things we usually don't talk about — doubt, struggle, temptation. You can stop at the end of any tier and still receive your Reflection.

At the end, you will see your own Reflection — eight areas of the Christian life, with a sentence for each showing where you are. Your answers are confidential. Your name is never attached to your results, and only you see your own Reflection. The patterns across all believers are what help pastors, researchers, and the Biblical Research Centre diagnose and serve the wider Body.

This is why we are asking: you cannot diagnose a concern without data, and the South African church has never had this kind of honest mirror before. Your honesty builds it. Pastors and researchers will only ever see anonymous patterns — never your name, never your individual answers.
