New Age. Demonic. A self-obsessive trap. The enneagram has taken much heat from critics, many Christians being chief among them. But is there a bigger, redemptive case for the enneagram in the Christian life? Jesse Eubanks, enneagram coach, host of The EnneaCast podcast, and author of “How We Relate: Understanding God, Yourself, and Others Through the Enneagram,” believes so. Today, he joins Patrick to address some of the toughest critiques of the enneagram and explain how the truth within the test can be utilized for good, both in the church and through cultural engagement. He addresses why the enneagram is so popular, whether or not the test infringes on biblical soul care, the temptation to give your personality type more explanatory power than it can handle, and whether or not the enneagram reinforces the harmful teachings of self-expressive individualism. Plus, is identity internal or external, and is there a risk of the test allowing narcissism to set in? Listen now!

Note: This episode is from our previous podcast, Truth Over Tribe. We’ve kept a few of these conversations on our feed because they're worth revisiting, but the tone and focus have shifted from what we’re doing now on Not Just Sunday. For new episodes focused on how Christians can live out a full-time faith, check out Not Just Sunday, right here on the same feed.
