Temperament Theory

What drives my actions? This inquiry has plagued many, yet few have uncovered the answer. Lacking the ability to comprehend the inner workings of our emotions, we often find ourselves stumbling in the dark, longing for a better existence but unsure of where to begin. The necessary tools lie within, waiting to be utilized. The almighty God, who gave his only son to the world, also endowed us with unique talents and strengths to connect with Him and live a Christ-like life.

Temperament therapy serves as a guide to discovering our true selves and harnessing that understanding to cultivate a more fulfilling and joyous life for both ourselves and those around us. Mastering emotional interpretation marks the initial stride towards achieving genuine mental well-being.

Unleashing Your True Nature

Embracing the Divine Design of Your Being

Have you ever pondered on the reasons behind your actions and behaviors? Do you question the motivations behind the actions of others? What if you could be content with simply being yourself? After all, God created you to be just that - YOU! Through our sessions, you will not only gain a sense of confidence in your true self, but also learn to accept and love others for who God made them to be. Most importantly, you will discover how to strengthen your relationship with God, leading to a deeper level of intimacy.

As part of our program, you will receive the highly detailed Arno Profile System - a Christ-centered temperament profile that unveils God's unique blueprint for your individuality. This tool will equip you with specific techniques to bring out the best in yourself and others.

The verse "Without knowledge, zeal is not good; and he who hurries his footsteps misses the mark" Proverbs 19:2 perfectly captures the essence of temperament therapy. By gaining deeper insight into your God-given design, you will experience growth in love and communication within your relationships and ministries. You will also understand how your identity is intricately linked to your fruitfulness in life, relationships, and ministry.

I recently heard Dr. Caroline Leaf, a prominent Cognitive Neuroscientist, speak on the importance of identity and its impact on success in life. For over 30 years, she has been teaching about individual identity in Africa and has witnessed incredible healing in the wounded and broken. It was truly reaffirming to hear her say that each of us has a unique way of thinking, choosing, and feeling about things. This resonates perfectly with the temperament profile we use at In His Image, which uncovers these exact aspects of your identity. The three main areas that this profile addresses are 1. thinking and socializing, 2. choosing and leading, and 3. feeling and loving.

Moreover, our program also delves into the truth of who you are in Christ, empowering you to fully embrace your true nature.

Uncovering the Key to Healing

The primary objective of therapy is to enhance interactions and connections. The root of our entire existence lies within our relationship with others and with the divine. To effectively facilitate the healing process, it is imperative to comprehend the underlying relationship needs of those who seek counsel.

Even before our birth, our Creator has instilled in us a pre-defined inclination towards relating to others. This profile, encompassing the mind, will, and emotions, is known as our temperament. “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart” Jeremiah 1:5

Scientific experiments and parental experiences have corroborated the fact that our temperament is inherent from birth, debunking the idea of a "blank slate." As evidenced by scripture, God intricately molds each individual. However, we are also endowed with free will, giving us the power to make decisions apart from our nature.
