To become our best personality, we need to become aware of our stress points and reactions.  Join Bill and Kristi as they continue exploring the Enneagram and how spiritual disciplines can help us reconnect to God and tune in to the Spirit.

The Enneagram is a powerful tool for relationships and loving well. It can even give us words to articulate our experience in marriage. Join Kristi and special guest, Hannah Schuller from Shepherd’s Grove Church and the Hour of Power, as they share how the Enneagram has helped them in their marriage.

This is part 2 of our conversation with Bobby Schuller.  Join us as Bill and Bobby continue to unpack how the Enneagram can help us live into our identity as the Beloved.  

Challenger types (#8) on the Enneagram tend to be vocal and thrive on making impact as leaders.  David in the Bible could be an 8 as he challenged Goliath and became King while learning to become vulnerable in his weaknesses (Ps. 51).  Join Bill and special guest Bobby Schuller, from the Hour of Power, as they unpack the growth and stress points of the challenger type.  

Looking at the cross of Jesus can be painful and frightening. The writer of Hebrews tells us that there is joy on the cross journey. Join Bill and Kristi as they unpack the cross journey and how it has helped them to see joy in suffering.

The Enneagram is a tool that can help us see our dysfunction, sin, and unhealthy coping mechanisms. God wants to show us the truth about ourselves and look at the parts of ourselves that is sinful so that we can repent and experience true freedom. Join Bill and Kristi as they further unpack each types’ “signature sin” and the pathway to repentance.

The Enneagram is a great tool that can help us become conscious of some deeply held internal beliefs, emotions, and attitudes.  As we become aware of them, we can grow beyond them.  Join Bill and Kristi as they unpack how each triad has specific wounds that can shape our sense of identity and point to our need for Jesus.

Anxiety is the basic emotional posture of the head types. Some of us may rely on getting more information, or finding the right people, or simply get distracted with pleasures in order to avoid the feeling of anxiety. Join Bill and Kristi as they identify the unique challenges of each type and share how they can take their anxiety to Jesus.

The basic emotional posture for the gut type is anger. Depending on your specific type, it may come out as aggression, passive-aggressive, or resentment. Bill shares how the enneagram has helped him to process anger as an indicator of stress and find pathways for relaxation.

Many pastors, helpers, and care givers may resonate with the heart types.  They are good at tuning into other people’s emotions while being sensitive to their own emotions.  Kristi shares her journey as a “helper” type and how the enneagram has helped her process shame and find acceptance in God.
