E334 - Enneagram or Excuse? When Personality Typing and Tests Replace Sanctification

from Sandy Creek Stirrings · host Joshua Gimenez

The Enneagram and personality tests are everywhere—even in churches. But has it become a shortcut for spiritual laziness? Are personality tools helping Christians grow—or giving them excuses to stay the same? In this episode, I discuss:- What is the "enneagram"?- Is there a differences between the enneagram and the Myers-Briggs (MBTI) personality system?- The occultic origins of the enneagram. - Should a Christian use and take personality tests like "16 Personalities"/MBTI based tests?- The potential dangers and pitfalls of using tests such as these. AND MUCH MORE!
