Spirit-Controlled TemperamentWho am I? What makes me do the things I do? Timeless questions. You’ve asked them, as have philosophers and theologians for thousands of years. In Spirit-Controlled Temperament, Tim LaHaye provides answers patterned after ancient models of human behavior and grounded in the Word of God, making this a classic read for all Christians. Temperament. You’re born with distinct strengths, but also weaknesses that can hold you back. God wants to transform your natural weaknesses to make you a dynamic, effective Christian who lives above anger, fear, depression, and selfishness. In Spirit-Controlled Temperament, find out who you are—predominantly Sanguine, Choleric, Melancholy, or Phlegmatic. But more important, find out who you can become. |
