    Here is the test: http://upperroom.org/methodx/thelife/test.asp


    You are a Mystic, known for your imaginative, intuitive
    spirituality. You value peace, harmony, and inner silence. Mystics are
    nurtured by walking alone in the woods or sitting quietly with a trusted
    friend. You may also enjoy poetry, meditation, wordless prayer,
    candles, art, books, and anything else that helps you connect with God.
    Mystics experience God best through rich images and symbols. You are
    contemplative, introspective, intuitive, and focused on an inner world
    as real to you as the exterior one. Hearing from God is more important
    to you than speaking to God. Others may attribute human characteristics
    to God, but you see God as ineffable, unnamable, and more vast than any
    known category. You are intrigued by God's mystery.

    Mystics want to inspire and persuade others, and need to live
    lives of significance. At times you push the envelope of spirituality,
    helping the rest of us imagine who we might become if we followed your
    lead.

    Sometimes you may feel a bit guilty about your need for solitude
    and silence. If so, you probably have bought into the American myth that
    says being alone and doing nothing is lazy, antisocial, and
    unproductive. Stop it -- now. Give yourself permission to retreat and be
    alone. It's essential for your well-being.

    On the other hand, don't get so carried away retreating that you
    become a recluse. That only deprives the world of your gifts and
    deprives you of the lessons that come from being with others. Some
    Mystics may have a true vocation for solitary prayer, but the rest of
    you need to alternate retreat time with involvement and interaction.

    You are a Sage, characterized by a thinking or head spirituality. You value responsibility, logic, and order. Maybe that's why you were voted "Most Dependable" by your high school classmates. Structure and organization are important to you. What would the world be like without you? Chaos, that's what! Your favorite words include should, ought, and be prepared. What makes you feel warm and fuzzy? Like Tevye from Fiddler on the Roof it's tradition! tradition! tradition!

    Because you love words, written or spoken, you enjoy a good lecture, serious discussions, and theological reflection. Prayer for you usually is verbal. You thrive on activity and gatherings of people, such as study groups. Sages on retreat likely would fill every day with planned activities, leaving little time for silence or solitude.

    We need Sages for your clear thinking and orderly ways. You pay attention to details that others overlook. Sages make contributions to education, publishing, and theology. You often are the ones who feel a duty to serve, give, care, and share with the rest of us.
    On the other hand, sometimes you seem unfeeling, too intellectual, or dry. Can you say "dogmatic"? You may need to experience the freedom of breaking a rule or two every now and then. God's grace covers Sages too, you know!
