Everyone has a worldview — most of us have never examined ours.

Whether we realize it or not, each of us carries a set of beliefs and assumptions that shapes how we understand the world — the way we think about government, education, economics, faith, family, culture, and the most important questions facing our country.

But how often do we stop and examine those beliefs for ourselves?

What it measures

Five areas that shape how you see the world

PEERS stands for Politics, Economics, Education, Religion, and Social Issues. Rather than asking where you stand on a handful of current issues, it draws a broader picture of the worldview influencing those positions.

P
Politics

Government, law and the role of the state.

E
Economics

Work, property and how we steward resources.

E
Education

How knowledge and values are formed and passed on.

R
Religion

Faith, truth and the questions of ultimate meaning.

S
Social Issues

Family, culture and life in community.

Why it matters

Ideas have consequences

The beliefs we hold about human nature, morality, freedom, government, education, economics, and faith ultimately influence the decisions we make as individuals, families, communities, and a nation.

“Take every thought captive to obey Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5

For Christians, examining those ideas also carries a spiritual dimension. In Colossians 2:8, Paul warns believers to be careful about the philosophies and ideas that can shape their thinking.

An assessment cannot tell you what to believe. It can, however, help you identify the principles already influencing your thinking — and perhaps reveal areas worthy of further reflection.

How to take it

Free, and simple to start

The PEERS Test is available to AMAC members at no cost. Here’s all it takes:

  1. 1
    Go to worldviewcheckup.org

    Open the assessment site to begin.

  2. 2
    Choose “Individual Testing”

    Select the individual path when prompted.

  3. 3
    Enter Project Code AMAC26

    This marks your participation as part of the AMAC initiative.

  4. 4
    Complete it and review your results

    Work through the questions, then see what they reveal.

Individual results are confidential. AMAC leadership can review only summary information from participating members — broader worldview trends and aggregate insights across demographics such as age range, gender and education level — helping to shape future content.

Find out what shapes your worldview

We spend a great deal of time thinking about what we believe. Sometimes it’s just as valuable to ask why — and whether the principles behind our beliefs are consistent.
