Take The Quiz!

So you read or heard the news about the recent Pew Forum's report about the sad state of the average church-goer's religious knowledge and shook your head in dismay.

Wonder how you would have fared on the test? Go here to take the quiz and see for yourself. No fair taking it AFTER reading the full report because that gives away some of the answers.

Share your score in the comments! I made 100. I don't think it was tricky at all. You?

Go over and read it! Then share it around your church.
