Larry Fox’s Making the Transition is a
hands-on guide and workbook about recognizing who we are in Christ and detailing the process
of identifying our gifts in accordance with our personality. Fox simplifies
and breaks down categories of personalities and groups them with certain attributions,
tendencies, and ultimate callings/gifts. The outstanding feature of this book is the simplicity
and ease of the writings and words, and one can’t help but see Fox’s efforts to bring
understanding to his reader in the simplest of ways.
One sure thing to take away from this book is
the epiphany and realization that God gave us unique characters and characteristics,
whether we’re introverted or extroverted. These characteristics and
personalities are somehow tied to our gifts -- thus, our ultimate calling and
purpose -- so we should never think we’re alone, a mistake, or an anomaly. We just
need to:
1. accept this epiphany;
2. realize that the enemy will try to corrupt
our unique personalities for his gain, and:
3. begin navigating our thinking towards fulfilling
God’s plan for our life using our gifts.
A great read – and not just a read – a workbook
that requires action and critical thinking from its readers.
