What We Believe Survey
What do you believe about the Bible? How do you view God, salvation, and ethics? Every two years, Ligonier Ministries’ State of Theology survey asks Americans about their beliefs in order to help Christians better understand today’s culture and equip the church with better insights for discipleship.

Your answers are completely anonymous. We’ll compile them so the results of everyone can be viewed as a whole. We hope the findings will help you engage in discussion and better understand the beliefs of your group.
