Dive into the enneagram! Shannon Stevenson is a member at St. Peter’s UMC in Katy, TX and an enneagram enthusiast. At surface the enneagram “any-a-gram” is an age old typology that takes human behaviors and reduces them into nine character types.  However, when one dives deeper into understanding their type this blended explanation of biblical and psychological personality elements actually shows us what inside us can hold us back from a truly fulfilling relationship with God and others. We will learn a brief overview of the nine types, how to figure out which type you most likely identify with, and ways to “do the work” of growth going forward. 

 

If you do not know what type you identify with or you are interested in learning more ahead of time please look at the following options:

 

1) Read a brief description of the 9 types, and ask yourself if there is one that jumps out to you:  https://enneagramexplained.com/the-nine-enneagram-types/

 

2) if you would like an excellent primer and more in depth read about all of the types please consider ordering The Road Back to You: An Enneagram Journey to Self-Discovery https://www.amazon.com/dp/0830846190/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_m9-LFb48G6SJE?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

 

3) Quizzes are popular but can be misleading, sometimes expensive  and are honestly my least favorite way to determine type. If you want to take one please answer all questions from your perspective and choices at ages 15-20 (before you had much life experience and/or knew any better 😉). The one below is free

Please know that if you are still unsure of the type you identify with that is ok! Sometimes it can take a long time to determine. We will talk about strategies to use that can help.
