1-- Active Christian Character Traits

CHRISTIAN CHARACTER QUALITIES (by Bill Stevenson) Note: I developed this list after I indexed a three volume anthology using A.C.E.'s 60 character traits and studying Bill Gothard's list of 36 character traits. It can be used for self assessment and as a Bible study “springboard”. You might use a 1-10 system or 1-5 system where 1 is rarely and the highest number means all of the time. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29.
