Millions of people throughout the world turn to the Myers- Briggs Type Indicator to guide their career choices, improve their relationships, and resolve conflicts. Now, two experts in the field help readers discover: The approach to spirituality that is most natural for them. Past spiritual experiences and what made them joyful, hollow, or even painful. New spiritual paths that add fullness to life even in the midst of difficulties. First published in 1998 by Hyperion, SoulTypes is a valuable tool for individual growth and strategic planning for those in leadership roles in congregations and other faith-based organizations.

Página 197 - And this is my prayer, that your love may overflow more and more with knowledge and full insight to help you to determine what is best, so that in the day of Christ you may be pure and blameless, having produced the harvest of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ for the glory and praise of God.
