The Faith Journey Quiz is a great way to easily start spiritual conversations with strangers on campus. Gather a group together, split into pairs, and together with your partner, use the Faith Journey Quiz cards to approach people around campus and start conversations.
Now it’s your turn! Gather a group together, split into pairs, and together with your partner, use the Faith Journey Quiz cards to approach people around campus and start conversations.
The conversation can go something like this:
Introduction
Hi! My name is ________. What’s yours? I’m with a student organization called InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. We believe that everyone is somewhere on a spiritual journey. Would you be interested in taking our Faith Journey Quiz?
- Ask them to read the survey out loud (white words in colored squares). Ask which of those descriptions they resonated with.

What does that (their selected step) mean to you? What’s your spiritual background?
Thank you for sharing that. We care about people from every spiritual background and we want to help everyone grow, no matter where they are on their spiritual journey. Are you interested in trying out a next step for spiritual growth that’s listed below?
- Read the grey words listed below the category they selected.
Compelling Invitation to Join the Movement
There are ___ students on this campus who are loved by God. Sadly, many don’t know God’s love. We are starting an InterVarsity chapter here to help students explore that love and be transformed by it. We are looking for people who will help us start this group. Would a community like that be something you’d be interested in? Or who do you know who would be? What’s the best way to get in touch with you? Contact Info, Instagram?
If you can reserve a table in a public area on campus then use the Faith Journey Table Top Display to start spiritual conversations. To find out how to reserve a table and what the requirements are for your specific campus, talk to someone in the student life or campus organization's office.
Starting spiritual conversations with strangers or even friends can seem intimidating at first, but you will be surprised at the responses you get as you are faithful and intentional. We’ve seen thousands of students, faculty, and staff engage in deep spiritual conversations using this tool and hope it can be a blessing for you as well!
