THIS SURVEY IS INTENDED TO BE COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS

 

Thank you for answering these questions. Please guard against exaggerating and also guard against denying.  Answering the questions honestly will help address any hungers or longings of your men’s group, concerning any unmet needs within yours or their hearts.  For men who do not struggle with any heart lust or out of control behavior, it is vitally important that you too answer each question so that an accurate pulse can be taken of your men’s group.

 

For married men, or young men living with others, if your wife, parents or roommates see this survey it could stir curiosity concerning your response. This is not our intent.  Therefore we strongly advise this survey be filled out and returned to your facilitator as soon as possible.
