How much do you know about discipleship, evangelization, and Catholic culture? Take this 9-question quiz to find out...

[Michie]

My bet is that the following quiz will capture some assumptions that you might unknowingly have about discipleship, evangelization, and Catholic culture. Below is your official (by my authority) Catholic Discipleship Quiz. Answer all the questions before scrolling down to read the answers below.

1. You can know if someone is a Christian disciple by how they act. Therefore, if someone is involved at church, prays, goes to Mass, reads Catholic books, etc - then you can be sure they are a disciple - true or false?
2. Can you be a Christian and a non-disciple of Jesus?
3. WHAT is a disciple?
4. HOW does one make a disciple of Jesus? In other words, what is the way in which we distinguish a non-disciple and a disciple? (FYI - If we unclear as to the answer, we are incapable of fully obeying the command to “make disciples of all nations”)
5. Jesus said his brother, sister, and mother were those that did what?
6. Jesus told would-be disciples that following him would cost them something. He used two illustrations to make his point. What were they?
7. The world will know that we are Jesus’ disciples by what defining characteristic?
8. Why does the Catholic Church exist?
9. What is the goal of evangelization?

The answers to these questions are below. Before we get to them, understand that Jesus and the Church have provided the answers to these questions long ago. Unfortunately, many modern Catholics no longer hold to the same understanding. Too often we have allowed ourselves to give into mission drift. That is, we are not operating based on what is most important, but on secondary issues. Rather than aiming to be saints and fruitful disciples who are acting as agents of God’s transformative grace in the lives of others, we settle for managers of programs and events at our parishes. This isn’t a bad thing, but it certainly is not the primary thing.
