About The Book

How Am I Wired? was written for Christians to understand who they are and how God created each person to be unique. Have you ever wondered why we do the things we do? Why are people so different. We have all heard parents say that their child isn't like either of them. Their child is different. How Am I Wired? will help to answer questions like these.

This book introduces the reader to the concept of temperament. It looks at each of the five unique temperaments. It explains in simple terms their dynamics and components, as well as their strengths and weaknesses. Temperament Theory is based upon the fact that each individual is uniquely made before they are born. There are endless possible combinations of these temperaments. Most people are surprised when they learn that temperaments are not inherited. In our mother's womb, God gave each of us a blend of temperaments making us special. How wonderful! We are custom designed by God!

The benefit of understanding our blend of temperaments is two-fold. First, we can understand our internal conflicts. Sometimes, our temperaments play tug-of-war within us. Second, there are interpersonal dynamics in all relationships. Big words that basically mean that husbands and wives, siblings, co-workers, and neighbors all are wired differently. If we can understand their temperament and our own, then interactions are more fruitful. God did this for a reason. How Am I Wired? explains why.
