Sandra Smith Eneagram Workshop

Using the Enneagram to Discover More About Self, Spirit and Faith

“Who am I?” is a foundational theological question. Deepening self-awareness is key for honest, authentic relationship with self, others, and the Holy. Waking up and becoming available to ourselves and to the Holy requires that we recognize the compulsions, patterns, and internal stories that limit us and deny us our full dimensionality.

The Enneagram Personality System offers a unique map of our internal landscape with its clear descriptions of nine personality types, their motivations, fears, attentional patterns and gifts. This psycho-spiritual system names type-specific paths to a compassionate heart as well as the barriers that each personality type encounters on the journey to wholeness. Becoming more aware of specific patterns and traits that deaden us to life in the Spirit is essential to our growth.

Certified Enneagram teacher and consultant Sandra Smith will facilitate a study of this system and offer spiritual practices for the nine types that may us up to patterns that no longer serve us.

We will use the book “The Essential Enneagram” by David White. Copies are available for sale in the office for $9.00.
