<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A prominent evangelical pastor shows that the Enneagram, when applied to the Christian life, can provide new visionary landscapes for reimagining discipleship and spiritual practices.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Author AJ Sherrill still remembers the moment when his life was forever changed by a word he didn't even understand at the time: Enneagram. A personality theory that includes nine different "types," the Enneagram has become a popular tool for self-awareness and improvement.<br/><br/>But in this book, Sherrill goes deeper, exploring with Christians how the Enneagram can be a pathway to profound spiritual transformation. Sherrill reveals the Enneagram as a tool to unlock new ways of viewing identity, personality, discipleship, spiritual practices, evangelism, and the Bible.<br/><br/>Using this fresh approach, Sherrill shows how our true identity is that of a beloved child of God. Recognizing that, we can move confidently into the world expressing this identity through our unique personality.<br/><br/>Through Sherrill's detailed spiritual exploration of each type, readers will emerge viewing the Enneagram as a precious gift to following Jesus more closely.
