by Martin Bobgan

Astrology & Personality Testing

Exposes popular pseudoscientific practices impacting the church today. Numerous Christians believe in and promote the four temperaments as a means of understanding human nature and behavior. The two most prolific promoters are Dr. Tim LaHaye and Florence Littauer. Their books and seminars have touched and influenced millions of Christians.

From the back cover:

  • The four temperaments, astrology, and personality testing–is there a connection?
  • Why are the four temperaments so poplar among Christians while they have all but disappeared from the field of psychology?
  • Do the four temperaments and other personality typologies give true insight into behavior?
  • Can knowing temperament and personality types foster Christian love and maturity?
  • Are there any biblically or scientifically established temperament or personality types?
  • Are personality inventories and tests valid ways of finding out about people?

This book answers those questions and more with biblical, historical, and research data.
