Summary

Is the Enneagram just another personality test trend, or is it a truly helpful tool? Is it okay for Christians to use the Enneagram? Why are so many people afraid of using the Enneagram? Whether you love the Enneagram or are skeptical, stick around, because Drs. Bill and Kristi Gaultiere are here to help us process and move towards emotional health! Bill is a psychologist, Kristi is a marriage and family therapist, and together, they have counseled and ministered to people for thirty years. In 2009, they co-founded Shepherding the Soul, a nonprofit ministry that helps people discover and take their next steps toward Jesus, emotional health, and loving relationships. Bill and Kristi’s newest book, Healthy Feelings, Thriving Faith: Growing Emotionally and Spiritually through the Enneagram, is a roadmap to help us go from knowing our personality type to growing in wholeness, health, and love. Lean in and listen as Bill, Kristi, and I discuss: Why people of faith are often resistant when it comes to doing emotional work How to tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy selfishness Using the Enneagram as a discipleship tool Two things that lead to change (and how one of those pulls us towards being more like Jesus) The difference between caretaking and people-pleasing Favorite quotes: “Our emotions influence our faith.” “Emotions are valuable and God given.” “The healthier we are in ourselves, the healthier our faith can be.” “Jesus is the perfection of each of the Enneagram types.” “There are two things that lead to change - pain pushers or vision pulls.” “The Enneagram is helping us get under the surface into some stuff that is broken, painful, and unhealthy that we need to look at.” Coaching this week: The Secret to Getting Motivated (25:28) Links to great things we discussed: Bill and Kristi Gaultiere Website Bill and Kristi Gaultiere Instagram Healthy Feelings, Thriving Faith: Growing Emotionally and Spiritually through the Enneagram Jesus, Name Above All Names - Naida Hearn Where To Find Me - Jet Trouble A Man Called Otto Shadowlands Immune Boost My Utmost for His Highest Dumb Money Old Navy High-Waisted Pull-On Pixie Wide-Leg Pants Remaining You While Raising Them Order your copy of Remaining You While Raising Them here.
