Unlock the secret
of your personality
and learn how to be a better
spouse, parent, friend, and Christian

In the womb God doesn't merely mold our body; He also gives each of us the temperament that, all our days, colors our understanding, guides our choices, and serves as the foundation of our moral and spiritual life.
Ancient philosophers identified four basic temperaments, and over the centuries, countless wise souls have used these four to understand human nature. Now comes The Temperament God Gave You, the first Catholic book on the subject in 70 years.

Here veteran Catholic counselor Art Bennett and his wife Laraine provide an accessible synthesis of classical wisdom, modern counseling science, and Catholic spirituality: a rich understanding of the temperaments and what they mean for you and for your family.
Drawing on decades of study, prayer, and practical experience, Art and Laraine show you how to identify your own temperament and use it to become what God is calling you to be: a loving spouse, an effective parent, and a good friend.
Best of all, they give you a Catholic understanding of the four temperaments that will bring you closer to God and help you discover the path to holiness that's right for you.
Peace. Happiness. Holiness.
You'll find yourself growing in each of these qualities as you come to understand -- and learn to use as you should -- the temperament God gave you.


And for those
who are married . . .
For countless years, personality differences in marriage have baffled, frustrated, and often angered even the happiest couples.
In less happy marriages, they've caused painful --- though completely unnecessary --- fights, and sometimes even divorce.
Now comes The Temperament God Gave Your Spouse, rich withtemperament wisdom designed specially for couples and guaranteed to improve your marital communication, intimacy, and happiness.
For in no other human relationship is knowledge of the temperaments so critical --- and so helpful --- as in Christian marriage. It's only through mutual understanding of our own patterns of reaction, and those of our spouse, that we can motivate, nurture, respect, and above all, love each other with the selfless patience to which Christ calls us in the sacrament.
