INTP. Truth seeker.

You are equipped to study scripture objectively, understanding how to apply biblical principles logically in the church. You see God’s hand at work around us and your mind fills with ideas of things the church can do in response to God. You imagine many possible futures depending on how God chooses to work out his will. You often see things clearly, but have trouble getting others to understand you. Naturally curious and analytical, you can be gifted in theoretical problem solving or reviewing complex plans for possible flaws. Unfortunately, relatively few of the many solutions you envision are successfully implemented, especially if they require approval or cooperation from others. You have great leadership potential, but leading others doesn’t come naturally so you’ve likely given up after a few failed attempts. You enjoy working with a close friend or two, but you’re also an independent thinker who won’t hesitate to go it alone if no one will join you. You tend to choose sideline roles, avoiding callings that require you to take center stage in front of large groups of people. Your relationship with God is likely to be a rational interaction, not as distracted by emotions as most other people are.

Guiding Scriptures: Phil. 4:8 and Rom. 12:1–2

"I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
