xiii, 202 p. : ill. ; 21 cm. Applying the timeless wisdom of the Bible, David Yates seeks to answer this most fundamental question all people-Christian or not-have sought to answer throughout history. Our human psyche is so shrouded in mystery and so generally inaccessible to objective study that no single theory has so far accounted for all its wonders. Now What the Bible Says About Your Per- sonality sets us surely on an old path in a new way as it draws upon the resources of Scripture to guide us to a better under- standing of ourselves. Informed by thorough and thoughtful biblical research, What the Bible Says About Your Personality shares the insights of the Bible regarding human personalities and different per- sonality types. David Yates gives us ample proof that God has established distinct personality types which are simply differing pathways toward the Lord: all complementary and necessary for the interaction needed to build the Kingdom. Providing a genuinely Christian context for current philo- sophical and psychological (especially Jungian) thinking about the nature of human personality, What the Bible Says About Your Personality demonstrates that the early Hebrews antici- pated by thousands of years many modern theories. David Yates traces the concept of basic personality types through the Bible and shows its relevance to present-day Christians. What the Bible Says About Your Personality is thoughtful biblical scholarship at its best: bringing to light further wisdom from the Scriptures by following careful and resourceful avenues.
