Excellent resource. Baab's has written a more complete guide for beginners and intermediate MB students. Although aimed at congregational leaders, this book will help leadership in any setting work more productively with others. Baab's discusses our DOMINANT, AUXILIARY, TERTIARY and INFERIOR functions throughout. A chart on page 17 is a handy reference for understanding ourselves—always the best starting place to understand others!

1. Introduction to Type and Spirituality
2. Using Type to find a place to serve
3. Stewarding our gifts (excellent!)
4. Prayer & Bible Study
5. Type and Spiritual Growth
6. Type & congregational activities
7. Type and Church leadership
8. Type and Pastoral Care (excellent)
9. Warning & Word of encouragement
