Sanguines are the life of the party.

They are extroverted, with a lot of friends, are optimistic, and scatter-brained, and does not hold grudges.

A sanguine soul must cultivate a love of meditation, so that they can focus on spiritual instead of temporal things.

Today, we take a look at the sanguine section of Rev. Conrad Hock's the Four Temperaments, as we study the sanguine's path to holiness.

IN THIS EPISODE

  • Instead of "winging" it, a sanguine must learn to plan for all possibilities.

  • He must look for good influences and accept direction and counsel.
  • Spiritual aridity purifies him.
