Eliminate gaps and help your congregants feel more engaged with Assessments, a new capability on the Gloo platform that provides a variety of church assessments from trusted providers like American Bible Society, Christian Life Profile, and REVEAL.
Scientifically validated, each assessment can be customized to fit your needs, and collect the data that matters to you—directly from your own people. As you may well know, assessments are critical to understanding congregants so you can make decisions that work with you to improve the health of your church, saving valuable time and resources.
The assessments available on Gloo are ready to use, and easy to deploy. Best of all, if you’re a current Gloo customer, Assessments access is included with your subscription; just look for the new tab in the platform.

An assessment is the process of collecting responses to a set of questions, and analyzing those responses to better understand where participants are in their current journeys. The information gathered can then be applied to the way Champions do outreach, engage their people, improve programs, or make plans for the future.
Assessments on Gloo are designed to remove obstacles for Champions so they can connect with their people, and lead them toward greater personal growth. Let’s break it down.
Assessments on the Gloo platform come from trusted providers, and have been developed through years of research. They incorporate questions that surface the key spiritual insights needed to measure progress, open valuable lines of communication, and empower leaders to guide enduring journeys to spiritual growth.
When you ask questions that provide a clear evaluation of your church and congregants, you’re able to identify opportunities to connect and engage your people—so they don’t slip through the cracks.
Assessments are ready to use, and can be launched via text, email, or through a unique link, so you get maximum participation—and some can even be taken in a matter of minutes.
Assessments on Gloo aren’t one-time use. Launch as often as you want to keep a finger on the spiritual pulse of your church. Many pastors call this a spiritual checkup, and just as you wouldn’t neglect your health by letting yourself go unchecked, leaving your church without regular checkups can have far-reaching consequences.
Real-time reporting means when you ask today, you know today. The dashboard tracks results in real time, so you know how many people have started and completed the assessment, and view results on dynamic graphs.
Understanding your people allows you to provide valuable next steps to keep participants growing, engaged, and feeling that their individuals needs matter.
There are a variety of assessments available on Gloo, with new, scientifically-validated assessments in development all the time.
