Does your personality influence your calling? You know, those personality tests everyone’s taking… can they tell us anything about how God might use us in His kingdom?
This isn’t just about Myers-Briggs letters or Strengthsfinder results. It’s about understanding how God uniquely crafted you AND how He calls you. We’ve seen plenty of ministry books trying to crack this code, but what does Scripture actually say about it?
We’re breaking down: • God’s blueprint for our calling • When natural wiring meets divine purpose • Biblical keys for discerning your calling • Why getting this right changes everything • Real talk about personality tests in the church
We'll dive into the modern psychological application of the Munus Triplex—as seen in the works of theologians like John Frame and Vern Poythress and also the APEST model popularized by Allen Hirsh.
Whether you roll your eyes at personality tests or you’ve got your MBTI in your social media bio, this episode will challenge you to think biblically about God’s calling on your life. Join us as we navigate this intersection of personality and purpose - no personality quiz required!
