Episode Details

In this episode, we dive into our most requested faith adjacent topic… the Enneagram! Instead of helping you type your dog or fuel your fire towards your frenemy who always finds ways to bring up their type in conversation, we wonder: Is this personality test essential for self-discovery? Is this a cult with Satanic roots? Could it possibly just be a helpful tool in the toolbelt of the Christian life? Join Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon as she asks these questions to explore the history and faith adjacency of this polarizing phenomenon.
