Are you trying to
understand why you act the way you do? Do you want to serve God but
find it hard to serve him the way others do? How can you know what
God's will is for your life? Making the Transition can help you
find answers to these questions and more.
This is a workbook designed to help you identify the unique
personality God gave you, but Making the Transition is more
than a personality or spiritual gifts test. It ties many aspects of
character studies into a useful and comprehensive package. It also
shows you how to redeem your
character traits so they can function as God intended. Becoming a godly
Christian
is a process that is as unique to you as your personality. If you have
ever taken a spiritual gifts test and asked yourself, "So what?", this
book is for you.
You will appreciate the relevance and practicality of Making the
Transition, and its strong biblical foundation. It gives specifics
you can apply immediately and understanding that will help you address
the important issues in your life.
This book will help you:
- Discover how your aptitudes, tendencies and interests work
together to make you who you are.
- Recognize the effects of sin on your character.
- Learn how God can redeem your character with your help.
- Discover the best ways to use your God-given abilities at work,
at home and at church.
