Episode 120 - Beyond the Enneagram

Go Back

SHOW NOTES

When it comes to understanding the Enneagram, it's time to consider a shift and deepening of how this tool can enhance our spiritual journey. There's been such a 'fad phase' in the past decade about the Enneagram that it has left many of us wondering... what is the real point of knowing ourselves better?

Marilyn Vancil and Steve discuss this much needed shift and her new book, Beyond the Enneagram. Steve and Marilyn explore the themes of the book--a re-centering of our self orientation to a God orientation. They discuss:

  • Moving from What I am to Who I am
  • Moving from Reaction to Responsive
  • From bondage to Freedom
  • From Wounded to Whole
  • From Shakable to unshakable
  • And from Being burdened to rested--Steve's favorite chapter and worth the price of the book in one chapter!
