Very Accessible Evangelism Tool
I love using this tool for evangelism. It makes it easy to begin conversations and gain an accurate sense of what people believe.
Functionality and personal connection
I love perspective cards and i think they’re so great for connecting with people in a way that breaks down their beliefs and is easy to digest. I just think the way this app works it difficult to use and I wish that if you started a game, you could link all the players through a link to your phone and see their results real time to ask questions in the same way that you would with physical cards!

AWESOME
i LOVE this app so much!
Revolutionary!
This is truly a revolutionary tool for evangelism. As one who for years used The Four Spiritual Laws to communicate the Good News, I have found this to be much more effective. Why? The Four Spiritual Laws required one person to sit and listen to a lengthy presentation and then make a binary choice at the end.
By contrast, Perspective Cards allow the game-player/survey-participant to do most of the talking, especially during the first part of the presentation. That normally opens him up to hear the presenter give the Christian viewpoint on the issues raised by the survey.
The presentation ends with the game-player/survey-participant choosing a Next Step among four options. So far, virtually all of the people with whom I have used the survey have chosen, in one way or another, to continue pursuing information about the issues raised by Perspective Cards.
Here’s my suggestion for one improvement: At the end of the survey, the survey-participant’s responses are emailed to him along with a message that has been pre-inserted: “May the conversations you have and the ideas you explore sincerely help you on your spiritual journey!”
Since I am planning to continue the conversation with my game-playing friend and to explore the ideas with him, I need to change that wording: “May the conversations we have and the ideas we explore sincerely help us both on our spiritual journeys!” This revised wording communicates a message that sounds much less like, “I have the answers, and I hope you’ll find them someday too.” The fact is, I don’t have all the answers, and by continuing our discussion together, we will both benefit. The rewording puts my relationship with my friend on a much more leveled playing field.
Get the tool and use it – it’s terrific!

Really creative, really helpful
For friends who don’t know where they stand, this is a great resource to talk them through their options. Having clarity around perspectives is the first step to having meaningful discussions around why they believe what they believe and how it is different from a Christian worldview.
If I could propose three improvements to the app, it would be 1) how to approach someone who starts from a “non-Christian” reference point and what to say to them to get them to consider the inadequacy of their perspective compared to the Christian perspective. And 2) it would be helpful to take all these labels and the generate possible “camps” that people fall into: (i.e. “you believed these five things, that means you’re probably a Mormon”). 3) there should be a way to make this app “facilitator free”—for example, I might text the app to my friend and the user experience should make it easy for my friend to “play the game” by himself or herself.
Well done! I bought two decks of the physical cards after seeing the concept, because these are wonderful for conversations.

Great tool to find out what a person believes
This is a handy tool when talk to someone and trying to figure out what they believe. The app runs smooth and even better than that, it’s free. I know you can find these online to buy in a physical copy, but to have it on your phone, it does bulk up your pockets.
Great Resource
I have the actual deck of cards and the app and it's super handy both ways. It's a great resource to start conversations and to outreach/evangelism. Super easy to navigate and doesn't need data or wifi to be used! AND ITS FREE! Why not get it?? Haha be confident while using it. Practice it on yourself first before using it on others (:

Great concept to open dialogue about important thoughts!
This helps people listen to each other's perspective, ponder good questions and share in a respectful way. We are on this journey of life together. We should be able to talk about and examine our world views and assumptions.
Brilliant!
This is the coolest idea ever! I like the way it breaks down so many concepts in an easy-to-understand form. It's a great way to help one figure out their own beliefs and open the dialogue with others.

I love this app! It is exactly what I was looking for. The fact that it works on iPod and iPad are great also. The fact up to four players can play at once is excellent. It's also cool how the game results can be texted or emailed to me & saved for future reference!
Understanding others
Really helpful tool to understand others' world views on life and spiritual matters.
Pretty Awesome
This tool is just so great for when people say "I don't know what I believe." Then, it becomes a team effort of "let's figure this out together."
The app is great, but I like the physical cards even better!

Solid app
The app is good for replacing the physical deck in a pinch, but I don't like that every time I open the app it takes me to the setup menu. I would like the app to open up to free play with an option to play the game in the menu on the side.
Awesome and Useful
Really great for conversations and a fun way to connect and hear about what other people think!
Only on iPhone?
Hopefully an iPad compatible version will be out soon!
Awesome Ministry Tool
The creator of these cards presented them to my family. I have been waiting for this app to be released. Now I will start using this tool.
Landscape on iPad broken
Great app. If you start it in landscape on iPad, it does not switch to the right view, but scrunched the layout all together. I have to kill it and restart in portrait view with the iPad positioned correctly first.
Even better than the cards
This is an amazing resource. Not only can you play the cards with people easily but the app contains more resources for sharing and for sending with the person you talked with. I think I prefer this over the hard copy and it can more easily go everywhere with me.
Conversationalist
A fun & safe way to explore what people believe!
