The D Style

Galatians 2:11-21

Paul is a Biblical character who exhibits the D or the dominant style.  In today’s passage, Paul confronts Peter “to his face” for Peter’s double-standard on eating with Jews and Gentiles.  The D style is comfortable with conflict and isn’t afraid to address issues.  For D-style personalities, the conflict and the confrontation aren’t personal; it’s simply what needs to be done.

Question 1: What are some positive traits of the “D” personality style?
Question 2: Who in your life has characteristics of the “D” personality style?

Challenge: When communicating with a “D” personality, focus on how you can help them and talk about solutions, not problems.
