Abstract

Because people differ in regard to the way in which they use the psychic functions of their personalities, they relate to the various dimensions of worship in different ways and intensities. To demonstrate this thesis, people were chosen randomly from six Lutheran congregations of various sizes and contexts for ministry. Each person was given the Myers-Briggs Personality Indicator and a worship questionnaire. The scores of these instruments were standardized and correlated, and the statistical evidence supported the thesis. The implications of this study for a congregation's evangelism and worship planning are manifold. When worship leaders are more sensitive to the variety of people and their personality types, they will plan more holistic liturgies.
